You can set it up so you don't even know that Windows is there. I am currently using Internet Explorer and have Safari running Hulu at the same time and it is smooth. It is awesome. I am running it on the iMac in my sig.

I have heard conflicting opinions on Parallels 5. Is it better than VMWare Fusion 3? I do not think I want to mess with Boot Camp and Windows 7 (once I acquire a Mac first) since BC is missing drivers for W7.
