    Has someone already experience with the new Thunderbolt Display? Does it work proper with Parrallels?

    Sure it does. It's just a display, after all.

    Parallels does not support Two Thunderbolt Displays

    I just purchased two Thunderbolt Displays, with the goal of running Mac OSX on the left display (primary with dock) and Parallels in Full Screen mode on the other.

    Two problems:

    (1) Parallels will only run full screen on the primary monitor - regardless of which screen it started from.

    (2) Parallels in full screen mode on the primary blanks out the second monitor completely - rendering it useless.

    So, I'm reduced to running in windowed mode, with the window as big as I can make it on the secondary display...

    Bummer - I was looking forward to the illusion of two separate but interacting computers...
