Really?! Lately what I heard the virtual apps were not accessible. That’s why I did a Dualboot to Windows 7 on my Mac.
I guess I’m going to look up Fusion. Is Parallel accessible too? My goal is to have Windows 7, and Windows 8.1 and a Linux or two. Does anyone have a link about everything about accessabilty for these virtual app? Thanks! Daniel Hawkins - Posted from my Macbook Pro 2012 15in.
