I've run NetBSD on a MacBook under Parallels; now I'm running it under
VMware Fusion.  Both work fine, but I prefer VMware now as it allows me
too use all keys on the keyboard.  With Parallels, even though you can
use Command in the guest operating system, it passes it also on to the
Mac; this makes it effectively impossible to use Command as Meta, e.g.,
Parallels will quit when you try to refill text in Emacs ...

BTW, for synching NetBSD's time to that of the Mac, I'm using timed,
which, if you ask me, is a much better choice for this kind of task than
ntp.
