Hi Kawal, I thought of doing the same, just using the full USB keyboard, but
with a laptop, although it would work fine, it would seem a little silly.

Hello Phil.
I too use NDVA and a demo version of jaws mainly for testing as I test for
companies using the Mac and Windows.
Well, to solve all my problems, I have an Apple USB keyboard which I only use
for Window environments. I do not have a MacBook Air or any kind of lap top
and just use my I Mac, 16 GB for Mac and 16 GB for windows. No pauses, busy's
or anything else to put up with. When Maverick comes, then it's a format of my
SSD although I haven't installed anything since I got my Mac in January. It's
like having two computers although it's only one! Amazing.
Kawal.

In preparation for getting a macBook Air, and running windows in a vm, I've
made the following alterations to my keyboards using SharpKeys.
I've set the right option key as capslock, and also, I've set the right
windows key(right command) to right control key. I did the control key thing
because I noticed in jaws help that the laptop layout sometimes requires
control in conjunction with the jaws key, and it was too much of a stretch to
use the left control with the right alt (jaws key).
So, on the bluetooth keyboard, I've got (left to right)
function key
control
alt
left windows key
spacebar
right control
capslock.
On the full-size USB keyboard, to the right of the spacebar, it's right
windows key, capslock, right control.
What are other VMWare users using for screenreader modifier key
arrangements? I plan to use both NVDA and JAWS in laptop mode.
P.S. I suppose one solution to the whole problem is to just carry around
and plug in a full sized Apple USB keyboard, keeping screen readers set to
desktop layout, but that sounds a little weird.
