Parallels just made it easier to try Windows 10 on your Mac


If you're eager to try Microsoft's Windows 10 technical preview on a PC, you'll either need to mess with your existing machine, or use a spare you don't mind borking. However, Mac users on OS X (including Yosemite) have a third option: Parallels 10. Using the latest build, you can download Windows 10 directly from the desktop, then run it in a virtual machine alongside your Mac stuff. That'll let you scope the incoming OS and its resurrected Start menu, Cortana support, new browser and Office Preview for Windows 10 with a minimum of stress. You'll also get direct access to your iCloud and iPhone library and be able to share files, text and pictures from Windows. There is one catch: you'll have to pay a steep $80 for Parallels 10, or $40 to upgrade.
