Parallels Desktop for Mac Update Beta2 (Build 3094) was released today. Here’s a screencast that shows off some of my favorite features.
- Place Windows applications on your Mac desktop or in your application dock. Just click to launch them directly from OS X!
- Use Command+tab to cycle through Windows and Mac applications simultaneously, and hide and show Windows applications just like you would with Mac applications

I wish I could be happy, but that’s just wrong!
At least Windows was contained to it’s own little box. Now it’s all over the OS!
It makes me want to take a shower.
This is fine and dandy… But it appears that applications with their own skinning.. Take All of mp3’s allTunes leave a lovely little shadow around the application that reveals the “cohered” windows session… And I mean all of it. If you move the window around you can even see bits and pieces of whatever wallpaper you have set. Needs more work, but other than that, I think it’s a big move on the part of the parallels development team.
