Well, as Tom said, and I eluded to, there isn't really much to add. The process for installing a VM, at least on Mac, is extremely simple for anyone. It literally consists of these steps:
1. Install the VMWare Fusion app, which is 100% accessible. 2. Insert a Windows XP install disc and click to create a new VM. 3. Follow the prompts and type in the key for the Windows XP disc. 4. VMWare does all of the inaccessible Windows installation screens for you, so you're done. install your screen reader and use Windows. That's literally all there is to it. I've actually done this several times already.
