NO I'm afraid there isn't an insert key on the macbooks or macbook pros. If you want to remap a key that you don't use, there's a great program called sharpkeys which will do the trick for you. It works with Fusion or bootcamp, and basically makes a change to the windows registry. I use the key immediately to the left of the arrows. I think it's like a right alt or altgr key which seems to give a alt and control or else it's the right windows key. Can't remember exactly. All I know is that I didn't use it a lot in its default function so have remapped that to the insert key. All works like a dream for me in fusion. Hope this helps.
