Really? I use wine all the time with no problems, and vbox right-ctrl-f seems a pretty easy key combo!

If you use Wine with Silverlight 3 there are many Linux boards that would welcome your howto.

right-ctrl-f is easy enough, but it doesn't change the monitor resolution as windows sees it. Unless you were already running vbox at native resolution (meaning much of the virtual screen was cut off) then you also have to increase the resolution in windows. It's like a 3 step processes, which is fine for me buy not for my wife. She'd just always stay in virtual box, so I do her one better and just boot Windows, which I don't like but she couldn't care less.
