I know this porobably doesn’t help but I believe parallels allow you to take a vm of windows and port it to a bootcamp installation, I also thought vm ware fusion allowed for something like this also. But it is or at least was possible.

But then, I find as long as I don't have too many Safari windows open, that my VM are speedy enough for Outlook and testing accessibility of web pages with JAWS, WindowEyes or NVDA. Remember especially that on the Macintosh windows and applications will keep the same documents open when closed and re-opened. So perhaps just reviewing all open applications/windows might significantly help your performance if physical memory is running short on your system.

I have a Windows 7 virtual machine running under VMWare Fusion. I only use the Windows 7 infrequently to keep up my Windows skills and to do occasional testing of web sites under Windows. Under VMWare Fusion Windows 7 runs painfully slowly. Is it possible to migrate instead to Windows 7 running under Bootcamp so that I can either boot the iMac as Mac OS or as Windows. Hopefully Windows will work much faster than using VMWare. I am not concerned about sharing data between Windows and Mac OS. A complication is that I no longer have the install CDs for Windows or some of the Windows applications. Can I just move my existing virtual machine into a Bootcamp partition? Is such a migration possible? If so can it be done without sighted help? I have the WindowEyes screen reader running in my Windows virtual machine. Many thanks for any tips.
