Dear Parallels:

I realize that it's only by the grace of your programmers that your product supports putting a notional Linux workstation on a virtual machine at all, and that as such, there is no real money in it.

But damn.

This whole thing where the Linux "hard drive" of the virtual machine and the Mac hard drive that wholly encompasses it can only talk to each other by using network file protocols between them? Like, y'know, rsync and ftp and all that? That's lame as well as stupid. Sheesh.
