Hello David, i'd like to know how did you have configured vmware windows and jaws to avoid some problems with shorcuts? Some launches the dashboard or other mac things. But when I configure "mac shortcut unable" I can't quit vmware fusion and I've some other problems, to change of window for example.
So I stop vo when I'm using windows but I like tou use the 2 systems together And I'd like keep vo working when I'm using Win with bootcamp. Is it possible? Murielle Do you think that it I've not yet install it because of my the problem that I've explain. ...
