Fusion is about $79 from the developer, Vmware, but you can get it for
less, just shop around. Memory?? Oh my man, please, 2Gb and you'll be
sitting so pretty you won't know what to do. Actually 1.5Gb is even
plenty and performance is very good. I've tested Fusion on my 1.8Ghz
iMac with 1.5Gb ram and have never really experienced any performance
issues that didn't already exist with windows. You'll have no problems.

I have heard of fusion, but again, I am not aware of the cost. I
would also be worried about how well the 2 OS's run in parallel in
terms of memory constraints.

Subject: Re: Cost of BootCamp
Before you start using Boot Camp, are you aware of Vmware Fusion?
Vmware Fusion allows you to run Windows in a virtual machine and
you can install it without sighted assistance. I believe you need
sighted assistance to install Windows under Boot Camp.

Hey there all,
I'm well on my way to switching to a mac and I think I've managed
to convince my girlfriend to do the same. As such, we will be
definite beginners. In order to switch from PC to Mac, I'm still
going to be running a copy of windows with bootCamp. I'm wondering
first how well this works? Second, how much does bootCamp run
for? Finally, how hard is it for a blind person to set up a
windows installation with bgootCamp? Thanks all for your help.
Best Regards,
David Wright
