I guess this means there will be no more upgrades to fusion, I no longer use it 
as I have no more need for Windows on my home computers, and, honestly, I think 
since Windows 8, it has really gone down hill. But it was a great product when 
I used it, and very accessible. There are alternatives, though not very 
accessible. There's another paid product called parallels but it's not 
voiceover accessible. Virtual box is free, but also not accessible. Then 
there's boot camp, but that requires sighted help to get Windows installed. At 
least more software is now being developed for the mac, so Windows should be 
needed less on these computers.
