VMWare Fusion - Toggle Input to the active window

I was just reading a comment that someone who was using Fusion had an issue with the fact that you had to use the mouse when you switch input back to the VM.

This post is for you. When you bring up expose (F9) to switch between windows and you switch focus back to the windows VM (I am assuming you are not using Unity at this point), all you have to do is hit Command - G to force input back to the virtual machine.

This way you don’t have to reach for the mouse!!

I still have the issue in Unity where alt-tabbing to a window doesn't give that window focus. If i have explorer, vs2005, command, etc. loaded and vs2005 is focused, if i alt-tab to finder, then alt-tab to command, i see command but vs2005 has focus so when I type I end up changing code instead of seeing a dir, etc.

Hopefully that is fixed in 1.1 beta, which I'll probably install once it is released since I can't trust a beta right now.
