    I've seen some threads discussing XP apps on the dock. Is this a feature in one of the beta or rc versions? I just installed Parallels tonight from a boxed version (says it's Build 1970). I am still futzing around with it but so far I love it. I've installed Quicken for PC and am amazed how smoothly Windows runs on my new Mac. I've also seen references to coherence mode and am unsure what that is. I've done some searches and found plenty of references to coherence mode, but so far haven't come across an explanation of exactly what it is. If I missed it, sorry. Any suggestions would be welcome! Thanks.

    All those new things are currently in beta. You can download and install the latest beta if you want to be a beta tester, but there is no support other than from your peers here. The new release should be out in weeks. Beta software is by definition still buggy. I'm waiting.

    Yeah, I am NOT a beta tester! I can wait as well. Thanks for the info.
