I would like to just have Windows app, say, Outlook on my Mac OS X dock and just click on it will bring up Parallels in the background and all I see is just Outlook without ever seeing XP. Can this be done?
having coherence set as defualt will sort of do this, but you will always see XP booting up. if all you want is office to work, you would be better off looking at Crossover Office for the Mac, which doesnt need Windows to boot up at all...
