Here is an article about the fusion folk, more below the link plus a question about the second variation on a mac:

One is to run multiple operating systems on one PC. Another is to have one or more operating systems running on a remote server, with the desktop tunneling in to those other operating systems. Technology such as Microsoft's Remote Display Protocol pipes keystrokes and mouse clicks to the server and a view of the screen back to the user." Here is my question. I want to use terminal mode on the mac for many things. As I understand it vo use is crude at best. Here is my thought. The dos screen readers afford far superior speech functionallity. Using a network or phone dialup into a unix or lynix shell dos provides perfect speech access because the speech is done at the local machine. I want to use a mac and something like fusion to run dos in one vm to access mac terminal mode in the primary system. Does anyone see any fundamental problems in this approach? I have an external synth using a serial port. Can one use one of the usb to serial converters in this capacity? Can one by usb port to usb port connection using a communications application on the dos side access terminal mode activity on the mac side? In dos days this was done on a regular basis when a unix system on a network was used. The dos machine acted as the local terminal on which speech to access the unix machine was used. The same is also possible using a phone up isp connection to a unix or linux based net account. Could one use a network with this setup in one machine? Can one use wireless for same? XB IC|XC
