Given all that is going on with VMware, I want to look at my options.

One is to put the VM on my old Mac which will not take version 12. I had started with version 11 on that Mac but lost the file and registration number long time ago.

Or, if I can somehow manage to get a free license for version 13, then I will again upgrade to Sonoma.

I may have Fusion 12 on my old Airbook. I can look if you like.

VMware 13 was available, and may still be fore all I know, from Broadcom
under a license that's free to individual users.

Unfortunate my attempts to paste what I???m about to say from the computer

Let me explain the situation that exists right now when it comes to virtual 
windows on a Mac. One if you???re using fusion and you have an Intel face mark 
and you do not plan on upgrading to Mac OS sequoia You have absolutely no 
worries right now.

If you only a silicon based Mac and you do plan to upgrade to Mac OS Sequoia, a 
word of caution. If you???re using being fusion so far in beta testing, fusion 
does not work if you have a series machine. I have found that parallels works 
much better than I have expected. The software seems to work very well with the 
current version of Jaws for windows version 2024. And NVDA. There are some 
minor issues when using jaws outlook in windows with getting the Message view 
table to expand. But I found that if you use the voiceover keys, you can use 
that as an alternative to select the message that you wish to read.

About being with fusion and what it appears the future is for that particular 
product as I understand it. I have been getting emails in recent weeks from the 
 The investiture office this I think is British business speak or liquidate, 
and or sell assets. The long story short that I???ve gathered from the emails 
is that Broadcom is going to eventually close down VMware fusion in order to 
concentrate on their corporate infrastructure business they did, however 
informed me that some of my personal data is being kept for marketing purposes 
if I have any questions, I can certainly get a hold of the digester office. 
Apparently, the only emails they want to receive are me staying in writing that 
I wish for them to dispose of my personal data. Apparently these are EU rules. 
Long story short it appears that being more infusion. If I???m understanding 
all of this is not likely to be around Much longer long-term.

Moving back to parallels parallels of course is not free. It is a $120 a year 
subscription. But the accessibility seems to have greatly improved to the point 
that as I mentioned above the issues are very few. I don???t work or either 
company. I???m just a private citizen mentioning my personal thoughts. The 
signature that appears under this dictated email, meaning I???m dictating to my 
phone. Certainly people should not take this to me that The National Federation 
of the Blind, or the national Federation of the blind deaf blind division is 
endorsing, and we knocking any product and or service. Finally, as I just 
mentioned, I am dictating this to my phone. I have this all written out in Word 
on the computer, but as I stated at the beginning of this message, the copy 
process did not work. So it is forcing me to re-dictate this entire email. 
I???d be happy to entertain any questions that anyone has related to all of 
this. Final thoughts here, but I have mentioned it based on beta testing but as 
you notice, I didn???t say anything about the beta I can answer most questions 
provided that your question pertains to what is already publicly done about the 
next version of macOS. If it???s something that I think it???s not public 
knowledge then I probably can???t talk about it until macOS Sequoia is released 
sometime next month or an early October. Again, please excuse any syntax 
punctuation and other errors.
