I tried running the PassMark performance test on my real PC (Intel Core2
Duo 2.2GHz) and got a rating of 591. I ran the same benchmark program on
Virtual Box on my MacBook whcih has the same processor and got a rating of
500. Some of the difference is probably the somewhat lame video in the
MacBook vs the Dell desktop (NVIDIA Quadro NVS) and a slower laptop hard
drive. So depending on how you measure it looks like about a 14% hit for
running inside a VM. Maybe Fusion would do better but I don't have that. I
also ran the test on a Mac Pro with 2GHz Xenons and got a score of 722.
Nice.

I said it and I was speaking of Windows under Bootcamp. If you run
Windows under the Bootcamp environment you are running Windows on a Mac
which is stable and it also is on cooler looking hardware. If you have
enough processor and Ram then running in Fusion will be as fast and as
stable as it would on a Windows box. Four GB of RAM and a dual core
processor will do the trick.

This brings up a question, how does windows work with fusion? Does
fusion
have its own windows drivers? I remember one person on the list saying
that
windows ran better on a mac then the PC, was that with fusion or boot
camp?
I know installing windows using boot camp does require sighted help.

And that's fine, but we need to make sure VMware knows there are many
of us using their product because of its accessibility, so that they
will continue to provide access to the software. V2.0 will be a free
upgrade to existing users.

Yeah, a guy said it has accessibility issues so I decided not to get
it.
