Bought this immediately when I got the promo in my email early this morning. I already installed Fusion and used the migration feature to copy my PC on to my iMac. I haven't tested the install yet other than looking at it briefly, but it went fairly quickly and seems to have brought everything over from the PC AFAICT, anyway.
The migration began showing 10 hours to do the transfer (My PC has about 50GB used) over wireless but I think it finished in a couple hours. If everything works, I'm going to recommend it to a client who wants to bring his Windblows stuff over to a new iMac 27" that he's buying on my recommendation. He already bought a MBA and I put Win 7 on it using boot camp. This will be easier for me if it works as well as it seems to have on my iMac.
Robert - it's version 4.1.1 that I DL-ed from their website. I didn't install from the MacUpdate bundle because I wanted to try it first. I had parallels on all three of my computers, but recently, after a full restore, on my iMac Parallels wanted me to go through registration again and I thought I'd give this a try to compare - my Parallels install on this computer was version 6 anyway.
