Left field question - rMBP late 2013 and VMWare for LTM-VEs?

Anyone have any experience with the Late 2013 Macbook Pros and using Fusion to install virtual LTMs? Im debating on the dual core vs quad core? Parrallel vs Fusion? Any general recommendation?

I have 13" mid 2012 MBP 2.9GHz Core i7 (dual core) w 16 GB RAM and OS X Mavericks.

 

Haven't been able to run LTM VE on Parallels -does not work. On Fusion it works fine. As well as on VirtualBox. Runs quite ok w 8GB+ RAM for the hypervisor, 6GB+ of it for the VE; then you can provision LTM + one module (e.g. using VE Lab) using TMOS v 11.4.1. Some room left for a couple of apache instances for lab testing/demoing.
