My own MacBook Pro

success

I had to chose to register and activate windows later after registering the virtiual machine on the WAN

This is the https://www.comxnet.dk/
dialogue box you get when you try to use an unregistered machine on this WAN

The MS Windows activation screen does not throw this to the front so you get a failed activation and must click activate later.

Here I was reaching for windows update and after filling in my user number and password the system automatically registered teh virtual machine complete with MAC number (Message Authorisation Code) and IP number (I have three omn this 10mb/ 10mb subscription)

and a big thank you for the info from
Macworld: Review: Parallels Desktop for Mac

For many Mac users, running Windows applications is a necessity. Perhaps your employer uses software that’s available only for Windows, or requires use of a Web site that relies on some Windows-only technology. For years, these users haven’t had many options. Microsoft’s Virtual PC was the best choice, but even on the fastest Macs, it provided a less-than-speedy Windows experience.

Apple’s switch to Intel CPUs, however, means that running Windows on a Mac is suddenly much easier—there is no longer a need to emulate an entire CPU, as new Macs now use the same CPU as their Windows counterparts. This means that, in theory, running Windows on OS X should be both simpler and much faster than it was with Virtual PC.
