Somehow I got Parallels started in coherence mode with the only thing showing (that Parallesl was active being the desktop in the dock. When that is the case clicking the Parallels icon in the dock brings up the Windows Start Menu. Now this is a great feature - I can select Wndows programs to run on my Apple desktop (aka Coherence). However, if a program is running in Parallels I am unable to get to the Windows Start menu. Request - please make Windows Start menu the default when clicking on the Parallels icon in the dock. My Windows applications already have their own 'instance' in the dock. Thank you for considering this request. Peter
