I want to install Parallels on a Mac to run both OSX and Windows. Here is a quote from an advertisement for buying Microsoft Windows 7 Upgrade with Parallels' 'Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate Upgrade (64-bit) with Parallels Desktop for Mac 6.0 Please note: For Mac customers the Apple Mac operating system is a “qualifying OS” and is eligible for the Windows Upgrade. By acquiring the VL Upgrade license under Student Select agreement they may install and run the qualifying OS and Windows 7 at the same time on the licensed device. Question: This implies that Mac OSX is only a qualifying OS for students? Is that correct?

Can a normal customer buy this combination (at whatever retail price) and expect it to work?
