Holding the Command key (aka the Apple key) and pressing Tab will cycle through your open applications. It's easier to Cmd-Tab if you are Copy (Cmd-C) and Pasting (Cmd-V) to and from various applications.

The video is skipping all over the place.

Seems like Fusion is pretty solid. Nice to have VMWare and Parallels competing it is driving up the innovation and quality of our virtualization app choices.

buffering a little better now. At least it isn't stuttering like it was.

Tried VMWare to get Ubuntu onto my macbook. Decent beta and very simple to use. That said, Ubuntu ran sluggish and eventually I installed VMWare and Ubuntu. Yes, yes, more memory, this and that and it would run better but I think I'm one of those who would prefer to boot into the OS rather than run a virtualization. Actually, I'd prefer to have one OS per machine. Still, VMWare is very noice indeed, and you really cant beet the beta's price. Oh and Unity only works with XP as far as I know.

Nice.. I am staying in the same hotel. Gotta love those LG LCDs. The Marriot did a nice job there.
VMware is going to need something that Parallels doesn't do/have to get a lot of ppl to switch

I really enjoyed the way VMWare did their "Unity" feature. It's significantly better than "Coherenece", except for one thing. - Access to the start menu has to be rethought. The way Parallels does this (clicking on the Parallels icon and getting the real Start menu) is a great way to accomplish this feat. With Fusion however, the menu is static and you can't drag and drop things into the start menu, in fact, you have difficult accessing the start menu at all! Also, if you start an XP VM and click on "Unity" without any applications open, Fusion will often (not always, but often) get confused and won't show a start menu when you click on "Applications"
All in all however, VMWare feels more polished and thought out than Parallels
I agree with #8 however, VMWare does need something Parallels doesn't have to get people to switch. Although the more technically apt people may choose Fusion, the average consumer doesn't think the same way. VMWare needs that "killer" feature that Parallels doesn't have in order to get people who have already purchased parallels to make the switch (unfortunately, "Unity" working with expose windows correctly isn't enough).

anybody know if vista is fully supported in unity? does it have the same drop shadow stuff and does it support aero?

Video is stuttering too much for me to watch (and it's not a buffering issue, because the grey 'fill' bar is past the playhead marker) but I just wanted to say 'hi' to the camera guy who's briefly visible in the mirror at the beginning. :-)

Poor Pat Lee with the camera behind him, focused on the interviewer. Must have thought he was dealing with arrogance, rookies, or both.

FINALLY a review/interview that relieves my biggest fear about their expose integration. Previously their demos had never shown overlapping windows being exposed (they had one that did, but with two XPs running) so I had worried that they wouldn't redraw properly (like SeamlessRDP windows tend to do.) Luckily this is not the case!

Nice show.
VMware has reliability, broad OS support and good user support as its main strengths. That makes it a buy for me.
It is half the price today if you haven't bought into Parallels already or the same as the upgrade to PD 3.0. At such low prices the cost of the license really should not be that important, either way. 40 or 80 USD, come on. Better ask yourself which product saves you the most headaches.
The mentioned Vista boot camp support is exactly that - experimental - because it triggers Windows activation every time you change between boot camp and VMware boots. So be aware of that if you are interested in that feature.

Is VMWare going to support OpenGL?

Can't find the post now, but add vmi.present = "TRUE" to your vmx file to enable paravirtualization with Ubuntu -- you'll be impressed at the speed.

scott, could you please ask the questions off camera, so the poor souls that are being interviewed are at least looking towards the camera. they don't know where to look, you - camera - you - camera.

I wonder if you use the media center for vista and plug in your xbox360 on there.
