Hi, I've been thinking about installing Windows on my Mac Book Pro via Boot camp.
Question: Which key on the MBP keyboard will be the Windows key in Boot camp? I really like the new Narrator but it requires extensive use of the Windows Key, I believe.

Good points Windows is always there and uses full system resources available to it via the installation. Bad points, You can't flick between the 2 operating systems at the same time as it's not a vm running windows within the mac OS system . As for installer of boot camp, Yeah it works great up to the point where the mac os / bootcamp restarts the machine into the windows installation setup.. The bootcamp installation process works well with voiceover and so long as you have the windows installers in an ISO file and a minimum 16GB usb it will download the apple drivers and windows installation setup and install it all from the USB once things are up and working. Bad point is that once the mac restarts into the windows installation there is no screen reader available to you as there is no audio device installed or working within the windows partition. Still it's my preferred option.

I can see a couple of disadvantages but would be happy to be corrected. i will not be able to seamlessly switch from the mac OS to windows but with the latest version of Fusion the keyboard is not disengaging from windows. The second problem I see is with Windows installation, does bootcamp have a similar feature to fusion's easy install where you put in your chosen parameters and sit back? any help would be great. -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
