I think I got it from the Mac-Access file sharing site. Ask Gordon I
suppose.

Hi,
Where can one get a copy of this VMware demo?
Thanks,

Hi Gordon and all,
Just listened to the VM Demo in its entirety, and I have to say, Gordon
did a fine job demonstrating VMWare.
I bought my first Mac this summer, after having used JAWS and Windows
since the DOS days.
My iPhone's accessibility was the deciding factor in my decision to
purchase the iMac. My principle use of computers these days is reading
and writing documents, and making extensive use of spreadsheets for all
manner of tasks involving the manipulation of text and data.
Unfortunately, I don't see any reason to learn an entirely new
productivity suite like Apple's iWork, since I know and use MS Office
extensively. I like the Mac iTunes and iMovie apps and I'm sure there are
others I'll get to know and use, but for productivity, I can't beat the
combination of MS Office and JAWS.
Now enter VMWare Fusion.
The demo makes me want to give the VMWare Fusion trial version another
shot, this time installing windows as a guest instead of using my
existing bootcamp. But, I think I'd have to either first remove the
bootcamp to free up the license, or, buy another Windows license to
install windows7 as a guest - and I'm a little shakey on both.
I've got half my 500GB drive dedicated to bootcamp, and the other to MAC
OS X. In all my days, I've never exceeded 50 GB on a system drive, so I
don't feel too constrained by this arrangement. I've also got a 2
terabyte firewire800 drive apportioned half to each system, so I feel I
have ample storage.
As it stands then, I have two systems in one iMac hardware package, and
but for the minor inconvenience of having to reboot to access the other
OS, and remembering the minor keyboard differences, it's working well for
me.
Well, I just wanted to congratulate Gordon on a fine job with the demo,
and give my thoughts on the Mac from the perspective of a long time
DOS/Windows user.
