Alex,

Welsh, Greek, Polish and working towards Russian too. West European languages are reasonably well supported. Ivox is apparently going to be enriched by adding a Greek boice but it hasn't happened yet. I miss the Braille support for these languages. It is very important to me. Jaws has got unicode braille tables in it and so can cope with Greek script. Hal has Braille supoort support for a couple of dozen languages in refreshable braille.I shall be switching to Voiceover completely at the first opportunity.

With best wisehs

Somewhat related question: I've got Windows XP installed under bootcamp. Increasingly, I am wondering whether I might be ready to run Windows XP under fusion. Can I try to do this whilst still keeping my bootcamp partition in case I make a mess of things?

I was also wondering whether if and when I decide to take the plunge, some of you who have so much know how would be happy to help off list so as not to clog up the traffic?

Sadly, I still need Windows for my languages and Kurzweil but it would be good to have Windows XP available on demand. Under Windows I run Jaws 7.1 and I have Hal 8 as well although I'm not running it as I was having video intercept problems. I did wonder though whether Hal would run on a usb dongle with windows under fusion. I don't know wehther anyone has tried this.

Thanks for any encouraging thoughts in advance, or warnings if there are any to be heeded.

With best wishes

Hi all,

Currently I have boot camp installed.  I'm finding that I'm needing
Windows less and less though so maybe now is the time to virtualise
instead.  I've used a demo of Fusion 1.0 or 1.1 I think it was many
moons ago and was pretty impressed. Can anybody who's used Fusion and
Virtual Box give me a quick rundown on the pro's and cons of each,
which one they use, and why?  Money is pretty tight here this
christmas, so not wanting to shell out cash on Fusion unless there are
real advantages.

Cheers
Scott
