Hi

 

I received my first Mac on Saturday. I have done a lot of studying and I
think I am quite proficient at the screen-reading with it.

 

However, I am very undecided about whether to use Windows with Bootcamp or
with VMWare. For my work, I do need to use Windows. This is a high spec
machine so I wanted to take advantage of that. But I have some questions.

 

I like the idea of having VMWare, so I can "flick" between different
operating systems. However, precisely please what are the advantages of
running it in Bootcamp as opposed to a virtual machine? If I ran it as a
Virtual Machine, what disadvantages would I notice? For example, would there
be any kind of delay when using a Windows screen-reader?

 

My other question relates to installing Windows. I've read a lot, and there
does not seem to be an easy way described with complete accuracy as to how
to install Windows without vision. This may seem like a strange question,
but if I booked an appointment at an Apple store to get some sighted help,
is that good etiquette? Are they likely to say no because I need to install
Windows?

I have the MacBook Pro, external keyboard and the Apple Superdrive which I
could take along there.

 

Thank you for any help.
