Parallels 20.2: Run Intel x86 VMs on Apple Silicon Macs (parallels.com)
2 points by solardev 3 months ago | hide | past | favorite | 4 comments



Apparently the newest Parallels now lets you run x86 VMs on M-series computers. (Previously, you could only run Windows Arm, and Microsoft's own virtualization/emulation inside Windows was what let you run some x86 software).


I think the built in Mac hypervisor lets you do this as well doesn't it?


Apparently, yes: https://mac.getutm.app/


I don't think that's right. UTM falls back to QEMU for x86 emulation.
