Parallels Desktop 8 For Mac License allows you to run Windows as an application on your Mac. It's like having the best of both possible worlds. You can run all of your Windows software native on your Mac. You don't have to 'convert' all your PC files to Mac files.

Windows Movie Maker, for example, runs perfectly fine on Parallels. It allows you to play and edit.WMV files and test them out inside a Windows environment.
