Thank you ever so much, Dave! I thought I could get away with not having those 
guys send me e-mails, but as soon as I checked that box along with the other “I 
agree” ones, you are right. It worked, and now I’m downloading the software. 
Hopefully there will be a way to opt out of their e-mails if it gets to be too 
much. <grin>

 

Thanks again for the help,

Pete in Portland, OR BTW

Pete, the problem I had was similar. However I needed to make sure that every 
field and combo box was correctly filled in — no blanks allowed. Also both 
those checkboxes. It finally worked.

I agree that the spoken number combination is one of the best I have heard as 
well. That’s not the problem. The problem is how do I get the page to accept 
what I type? I could not find any button or link, and pressing RETURN didn’t 
work either.

Well, that speech version of the captcha is one of the simplest I’ve ever 
encountered. Just four letters/numbers, and pretty darn clear. Why not give it 
a try before casting aspersions?

I’ve got VMWare 11, but thought it would be cool to upgrade to version 12. I 
don’t have a VMWare account, so I needed to register, too. All went fine until 
I got to the part where I needed to fill in the captcha. It even had an option 
to speak what I needed to type, but I could not for the life of me find any 
place to click verify I’m not a robot. This is sad on their part, if you ask 
me, unless I’m missing something somewhere. I actually tried registering both 
on Safari with VoiceOver and then went to my Windows PC to see if I might have 
better luck with JAWS and MS Edge, but nope, no go there either.

I heard fusion is free for personal use now.

Hi,

Vertual box is free, but not sure how well it works with windows.  I use fusion 
and it is the most accessible.  Not sure how much it costs as I bought it a 
while ago.

Hi folks.
Was wondering if anyone new of a free option for a VM, or should i just use 
Fusion?
Also I was curious about something call CrossOver. It says it will let you run 
windows apps without using a vm? but I wasn’t sure if that would actually work 
with VO.
