Hmmm . . . I knew you could run XP on Windows 7, but I've not heard about the parallel desktop.

Does that mean you can "share" TT and Type 1 fonts - or is it just a visual emulation? What about running Mac software - will it do that?

I was really disappointed in Bootcamp on my Mac - thought I could have both platforms running simulaneously - and just toggle back and forth between them. Nope. Had to log off of each completely to "switch" back and forth.

Interesting!!

I have my dock set to auto-hide. If I pit my mouse at the bottom of the sceen, it appears.

I have mine on Linux the same way but it only hides if an app Window is above it.
