Hi, everyone,
I had tried Parallels a while back but could never get it to work satisfactorily, so was able to get a refund within the 30-day trial. Kelly's announcement about the script he had developed was intriguing enough for me that I decided to re-purchase Parallels desktop to give it a try. As you probably know, there are two versions of Parallels Desktop, Standard and Professional. With the promotion they have going on now, there was only like a $20 US difference, but I decided to do Standard rather than Pro anyway for starters. In his announcement, Kelly talked about opening a terminal window to do all the work, but it turns out that the script won't go all the way through if you have the Standard edition, you do need the Pro version because of command-line commands to Parallel that are only available in the Pro version. Bottom line is to make sure you get the Pro version, as the script does indeed work extremely well. Nice job, Kelly! Now that I have a VM up, I do have some very basic questions about getting things going. It looks like by default the VM starts in convergence mode, and I know how to get it into full screen mode, CMD+ CTRL +F, but I'm not sure how to configure the keyboard initially to at least get Narrator started so I can do some initial exploring. When I first asked about Parallels, some of you did suggest some keyboard add-ons and/or modifications, but I can't find those e-mails right now. So if anyone has a moment, can you give me some pointers? Thanks, inn advance, for any help, Pete De Vasto -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
