    Does anyone know the keystroke to use to eject the cd on a microsoft keyboard. Just bought the laser desktop 6000 and it works great in the mac side but keystrokes and shortcut keys just flip back to the mac....guess parallels can't handling that one yet, but would like to know about the key strokes.

    AFAIK, Windows doesn't have a keystroke to eject a CD. There's an eject choice on the context menu for the drive in Windows Explorer, and most Windows machines have buttons on the drives which is the way I do it.

    Windows was not designed with non-button drives in mind. There probably are several small programs around that will eject disks, and some software that uses CDs or DVDs have eject functions, but there is no Windows-wide key.

    Open Windows Explorer.
    Right click on the CD drive.
    Left click on Eject.
