I used Pass Mark. Dunno if it's really that good. It was just one of the
earlier hits on my Google search.

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.
