How do I get Parallels running in a new desktop?


Remember all those videos of Macs running OSX and then "cubeing" round to XP then "cubeing back to OSX - how is that possible? Also, is it just a shortcut key?


VirtueDesktop was used in someway but I can't remember how exactly...


Any help? Cheers.
 
Try VirtueDesktops.

Run windows in one of the other desktops and just switch to that one when you need to use it.

It is now a part of my mac experience 100% of the time.



Just set up like this-

Question

So, the vids showing the cube effect with going from Mac OSX to win and back use both parallels and VirtueDesktops ? By the way, is http://virtuedesktops.info/ the official site? Does not seem to be working at the moment of typing this.
