Hello Jamire To avoid repeatedly discussing the same topics on list, could I suggest that you might like to view the list archives which contain extensive discussion related to VMWare Fusion. Fusion is a popular virtualisation application which allows you to run virtual machines within Mac OS X and, therefore, multiple simultaneous operating systems. There are, and probably will be for the medium term at least, several accessibility issues which can mostly be worked around. Indeed, if one is prepared not to be able to customise the user interface of a pre-installed operating system, Parallels Desktop can actually be used by a blind or visually impaired person. Anyway, as I said, there is repeated discussion on the list archives so you might like to go there and do a search for the term "Fusion" which will undoubtedly produce a lot of information for you.
Oh, and for the record once again and for everybody's reference, it is against list policy to discuss the configuration of Windows within your virtual machines. Discuss the virtual machines's configuration itself, but not the guest operating systems unless, of course, the guest operating system happens to be another instance of Mac OS X which, of course, changes the entire ball gam. Thank you for your tolerance. Lynne I hope this helps.
