The biggest problem I've found using Jaws in Vmware is the lack of an insert key. This hasn't been a major problem but I'm not using my mac on my job. If I was I'd try the keyboard map utility someone mentioned on this list. Unfortunately I don't recall its name but I'm sure someone has it. Other than that Vmware has worked fine for me. I haven't tried the boot camp route. On Nov 17, 2009, at 10:55 AM, VaShaun Jones wrote:
