Running Parallels on Lion and Mountain Lion

I have someone who has configured Parallels perfectly on Lion, and I hope to us that installation to guide me as I install Parallels on Mountain Lion. Is there a difference I should be aware of?

This would be the latest version of Parallels. The Lion version is backing up perfectly to Time Machine, using an increment backup. My dislike of VMWare Fusion was that simply logging into Windows caused a subsequent Time Machine incremental backup to be a minimum of 45 GB since it was copying the entire Virtual disk. But this Lion installation of Parallels backs up only what has changes, and will allow me to have small backups, and I will do them frequently as a result.

So please tell me if this Lion installation of Parallels would have the exact properties needed for Parallels on Mountain Lion.

Thanks!

Before I install Parallels, I need to fully remove Fusion, right? I have another post where I am getting help, since I think I did not remove it completely before upgrading to Mountain Lion.

What install options would I be asked to set when I install Parallels?
