Oh, cool! I have my mac already set up with boot camp. Would I likely have
activation issues with JFW going back and forth between these 2 methods?
Would I have to take up 2 keys, or is Fusion smart enough to deal with it?

Hi.
A couple of things to keep in mind.
1. If you do go the boot cam route, you will need sighted assistance to get
windows installed. Also, you'll be able to have Fusion treat the bootcamp
partition as a virtual machine. This has some advantages such as being able
to utilized all of the Mac's resources when you need to do something that
needs a lot of them but still able to boot in to windows quickly through
fusion when you don't need to do something system intensive.
2. The quick install option in fusion will have fusion install windows
without sighted assistance. The only thing you need do after installation is
install you're screen reader of choice.

Thanks Matt. Right now I'm still unsure as to whether or not I'll set up a
virtual machine or do a bootcamp install, but this info was very helpful.

Hi.
Once you shut down the VM, you're Mac will indeed have all of it's
resources once again.

Hi everyone.
I have a copy of Windows 7 floating around here, and I was thinking
about playing with VMWare fusion. I have a few questions before I get
started though. I understand that when you're setting up the virtual
machine, you allocate a certain portion of your system resources in
order to run it. Let's say, for example that I allocate four of my eight
gigs of ram and 250 of my 750 gigs of hard drive space for the virtual
machine. When I shut down the virtual machine, will those resources be
returned to my mac? That is to say, will I once again have all 8 gigs of
ram and 750 gigs of hard drive space available for use on my mac? I
apologize if this sounds basic. Thanks.
