Yep, with the exception of the MBA options per screen size, the only way to go faster is to go bigger. Hence I have a 27-inch iMac. Dunno why Apple feel they need to do this; guess it just makes the most sense from a marketing perspective. -- The following information is important for all

Re: Understanding the VMware concepts with windows

Certainly agreed on that. On my MBP I’m running Fusion 8 with Windows 10 32bit which for me is more compact and uses less space than 64bit. In case of Fusion it really doesn’t matter what version of Windows you are wanting to install and for heavy VM users I would certainly recommend 64 bit.

4 gigs sounds typical but you can verify that in OS X by selecting About this Mac from the Apple menu. If 4 is enough to run both OS X and Windows, I have no idea. I also have no idea how many windows can be open at one time but there has to be a limit somewhere. From E.T.'s

Re: Understanding the VMware concepts with windows

How much memory does your Mac have? You need to split that between OS X and Windows. You do this in VMware settings. I added memory and have 16gigs and split that evenly between OS X and Windows, works ok. When you run both aat the same time, both are using/sharing resources. You can
