That's 1 of the other reasons I got rid of VM ware; using it was going to require another jaws authorization, and to me, it just wasn't worth it. Also, and again, this could be something indicating that my VM wasn't set up properly, the jaws key I did try to use on the VM kept deactivating; have never had a second's trouble with my bootcamp setup.

I have my mac already set up with boot camp. Would I likely have activation issues with JFW going back and forth between these 2 methods? Would I have to take up 2 keys, or is Fusion smart enough to deal with it? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matthew Campbell" <wrestling.ch...@gmail.com> To: <macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> Sent: Sunday, June 03, 2012 4:44 PM Subject: Re: VMWare Fusion questions Hi. A couple of things to keep in mind. 1. If you do go the boot cam route, you will need sighted assistance to get windows installed. Also, you'll be able to have Fusion treat the bootcamp partition as a virtual machine. This has some advantages such as being able to utilized all of the Mac's resources when you need to do something that needs a lot of them but still able to boot in to windows quickly through fusion when you don't need to do something system intensive. 2. The quick install option in fusion will have fusion install windows without sighted assistance. The only thing you need do after installation is install you're screen reader of choice.
