Your software works brilliantly (even if VirtueDesktops doesn't work properly with RC1). Installing Linux was a snap, and it works perfectly. I had a slight issue with networking but that's now fixed. I'm ordering Windows and will install that when it arrives. I've pre-ordered the software and think it's worth every penny. So, thank you!
A couple of things I've noticed, though: a couple of the dialogs and screens have unnecessary scroll bars. For example, when I tried to edit the configuration of a suspended guest OS, the dialog that popped up had scroll bars, and half of the message was obscured. Now I've resized it it seems to always come back the same size, but it would be good to have it fixed initially. Also, the main screen for my Linux installation (the overview of different settings, not the configuration editor) always has an unnecessary scroll bar when I first run Parallels, but it's not possible to resize this screen. I'd also like to confirm that Parallels RC1 *crashes* when I try to switch desktop, as I've seen that it does for some people. I'm on a MacBook Pro 2.16GHz with 1GB RAM.
Otherwise, I add my voice to the throng who want VirtueDesktops support restored. I can't wait to be able to switch between OS X, Windows and Linux at the press of Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right. From TextMate, Camino and Transmit, to Internet Explorer 6 and 7 beta, to Frozen Bubble. Brilliant. Thank you for your software! I look forward to the final release.
Edit: I just remembered. I use Quicksilver, and have various keyboard shortcuts set up to control iTunes (pause, stop, play, next track, previous track, run iTunes) and currently (RC1) they work (though I haven't tested "run iTunes"). Please don't break this! It's a fantastic feature - being able to control music on the primary OS while in the guest OS.
