I wonder if Windows 7 32-bit would run any smoother under VMWare than
the 64bit version?
Thanks,

Well, i was running fusion with 2gb of ram and windows 64-bit on my mbp and it
was a bit sluggish. If performance is your main priority, you should run boot
camp wich will mean that Windows gets the whole 4gb and will run more smoothly.
If you want the ease of flipping between the 2 operating sy
I have a new air with 4gb of memotry. Bootcamp runs fine.

I've had this issue as well, and I'm running an Air with the same
configuration. Window-Eyes seemed to work slightly better, but I need
to do more testing. I'd be curious what experiences others with the
Air have had with Windows 7 64 bit.

I'm no exbert, but I hear that windows 64 bittt needs at least 4 gigs of ram.
And what the mac can do, the minumum you need is 4 gigs of ram. So I don't
think switching to boot camp, or another windows screen reader will make a
difference. JMO

Hi all,
I have installed fusion on my MacBook Air and am running windows 7 64
byt. The Air's specs are maxed out - 4gb ram, 2.1ghz processor (it is
one of the late 2010 models). The problem I'm having is that Jaws is
stuttering a little when I have say two or three word docs open at
once. I've tri

Hi!
What do you mean that the boot process isn't accessible? I haven't seen any
trouble so far.
Also, the downside to Fusion is that, if you don't allocate the proper amount
of memory to your system, you will get what is called a "memory swap". This
means that Mac OS X and your virtual machine
Go with fusion, I use it my self and love it.
Fusion allows you to run both windows and your Mac OSX environment at the same
time. Boot Camp only allows you to use one at a time. Also, the boot process
with boot camp isn't accessible I don't believe. I don't think it's impossible
to use but

Would vmware fusion run on a Mac Air? Thanks!

Hi,
No, he means Bootcamp it, then virtualize it if you don't like that into a
virtual machine.
It doesn't appear that making a virtual machine into a Bootcamp partition is
actually possible.

Laughs. No man, you have it backwards. Install it under bootcamp, then it
will appear as a virtual machine in vmware fusion.

Well there are advantages and disavantages to each one, but if you already have
fusion, why not make up a bootcamp partition and virtualize it? Then you could
try both ways and use which one you like, or either or depending on the
situation.

Hi,
As far as I know, there is no auto-install. At least, I have never seen it, and
thus you most likely have to use sighted help as when installing Windows on an
actual PC. It'll probably be the same procedure, according to all the sources I
have looked up.

Nic

Not for everything, but you do need to remember to select the right
partition, and that's something I did need the documentation to do, as I
wasn't sure how Windows would see it.

The Mac side can be done without sighted assistance, but you MUST follow the
directions EXACTLY! It will require you to print out the 30+ page bootcamp
assistant documentation, and there are two stages for partitioning your
drive. The first is creating said partition, which you will do on the OS X
