With parallels can I run terramodel on my Mac mini

You can run any software that runs in Windows. I have no idea what Trimble's Taramodel is but if it runs in Windows it will run in Windows installed in Parallels, If it is a heavy resource user the performance running in Parallels may be not as good as if it was running natively.

The other issue that you will have to check out is that Terramodel requires a USB Serial security device dongle.

I am not sure if the proposed configuration will allow for this.

Did you ever try this?

I've run Terrramodel using bootcamp and windows 7, but I would like to just use Parallels if possible.
