Hi, that's good to know that it doesn't cost money. I don't regret using VMware Fusion, since times call for having both operating systems running at the same time, but it's nice to know that this alternative option is also available. if I have Windows already installed via a virtual machine, would I have to reinstall it, do you know?
Thanks.
