Re: using crossover
As far as I know it is not accessible. You would be better off going with VMWare's Fusion and stay away from Parallels.

I've just played briefly with the messages public beta and everything looks great. One thing that's really rad is that you can easily put emojies in to you're messages without having to jump through any hoops. The best part of this is that VoiceOver reads the different emojies.

In my situation, I don't have the space for a monitor with the current setup. So, the converter box and adaptor fit the bill. However, I do have a monitor around in case I need sighted assistance. I just wanted folks to know that there is a setup that will work if they don't have a monitor and that Apple is not completely aware that the newer Minis still can't work well without a monitor.
