Default Mac users... Check out the new Parallels!

I just got the updated Parallels.

You can now run Parallels in this mode called Coherence mode.

So now, you don't even need windows to complete you work, you hit coherence mode and it will just port the application to your dock.

I have Lotus Notes and IBM Sametime just ported and also have ported the start bar to Mac OS incase I need to open another MS product.

It is sooo cool

Check it out by updating your software if you run Parallels
