Hi Zoey, I myself am using Fusion, and it's the most wonderful solution for accessing Windows programs along with your mac ones. Bootcamp requires some sighted help to set up, unless you can find a guide to help you, which I honestly still wouldn't recommend. As far as Parallels, that's completely inaccessible, the last time i heard anything, but they may have changed. A lot of people on this list use VmWare Fusion.
