I suppose it may be possible, but every Windows app would be
different: some are better supported than others. With a VM, you're
running an actual Windows OS, so there are no additional
compatibility issues.

I've generally found that Parallels is better with Windows, and
VMWare better with Linux, but both have improved greatly in the last
few releases. Since I bought Parallels already, I was testing the
free beta of VMWare, and when that expired, I saw no compelling need
to purchase it, as Parallels was doing all I needed. Both have had
several releases since then, so my opinions are out-of-date.
