Subject: Re: Fusion and Windows 8.1

Hi Marshall, congratulations on taking the plunge! The installation using 
VMWare's "easy install" method can be done without sighted help. VMWare asks 
all the relevant questions up front, then automates the Windows setup. In 
Windows 8.1, you don't have a startup sound by default. However, about 15 to 20 
minutes after you begin the install you can turn on Narrator by pressing 
COMMAND+ENTER. By default the COMMAND KEY acts as a Windows key, so you are 
pressing WINDOWS+ENTER.

Cheers,

Grant
