    I love to show off the functionality of the MacBook Pro C2D running Parallels (build 1970) to people. I'm a traveling consultant who almost always ends up working at customer sites running Unix or Windows.

    I love setting the MBP on a table, firing up a parallels machine (running Solaris, RedHat or Windoze), and watching people's reactions as the autostart/auto-fullscreen desktop "rotates" into place (I should sell these things on the side, it'd be easy... but that's another topic entirely)

    Anyway, I've been hunting for a "command key" combination that would let me "rotate" (cycle) between Parallels "VMs" and the Mac. I typically have a Unix machine and a Windoze XP machine running at the same time and would love to the ability to "rotate" between them. I know I can do it with CMD-TAB, but I lose that "cool" rotate effect that grabs peoples attention.

    Any thoughts?

    TIA, Steve

    Thanks for the suggestions. I'll check 'em out.

    And sorry about "Windoze". Old habits die hard. At least I've graduated from "WindBlows" and "Internet Exploder"....
