That is quite cool, but has anyone had any success at getting Parallels working? I've sent a couple of e-mails to the Parallels Customer Service folk/folks and hav e never gotten a response. I'd think at least they'd have made some attempt especially when I wrote them as an employee of a federal agency who is considering the purchase of their product. The software has to be 508 complient and it sure ain't as far as I can tell.
I'd prefer this option over dual-boot personally.

that was just in relation to the parallels product. That program allows you to run a copy of windows xp from with in OS X. A type of virtual machine. ACtual Duel booting runs just fine. I'm currently using a Copy of Dolphin access's Hal and I've installed and tried demo copies of JFW and window
eyes.

Windows XP runs incredibly responsively, probably faster and snappier than
any other computer I've ever used.

It rocks!

Hey Jerry,
I thought there were problems with JAWS and the DCM Display Chain
Manager?
Has this been corrected so JAWS will work on a Mac?

Any of the Intel Macs will run Windows XP and, yes, you can use
JAWS with it under XP. Right now, it's necessary to run Boot Camp
to facilitate booting into XP but the next release of OS 10,
Leopoard, will offer this feature built-in without the need to run
Boot Camp.

Hello, everyone.  I am in the process of shopping for a new
laptop.  I am
considering a Mac due to the ProAudio work I'll be doing.  I've
played with
VoiceOver and like it, but I'm still a braille user at heart, and
there are
still some applications which simply work better under Windows
(for example,
Sibelius music notating software).  My question is this: I've
heard that
Apple is going to be releasing a product that will allow a person
to use
Windows under the Mac platform.  Does anyone know if someone could
use the
Mac OS with VoiceOver, then dual boot and use something like Jaws
under the
Windows environment?

Thanks for any help!
Satauna
