Hi Esther You're quite right. It is important to understand that, although I do go into quite a lot of detail on installing Windows, it was under Tiger, a very very early beta of Fusion 1.0 and a long time ago. I will try, if there is a demand, to update this and I will also add this to the Mac Access podcast page. Thanks for the find Esther. Thank you also for posting the URL file to the website for those who are unable to locate the archives.

This was pulled off my 2005 PowerBook G4 and converted from the downloaded WMA format. I've also uploaded the streaming mm298.m3u file for this program, which includes the succeeding hour of live questions that follows the program. The first file is the pre-recorded demo podcast on virtual machines that Gordon made available for download before the program. If I open the .m3u file, it starts playing in iTunes as a streamed music file (requiring an internet connection.) In case I've made an error in pulling this off, it can be found on ACB radio's Main Menu site. Here's the shortened link: http://bit.ly/brVoDC Then move to the link for 2 May 2007 program, which links to the streaming file. Also, for new users, the mac-access.url file at the above linked URL provides a link to the Mail Archive pages for this list. You can place that file on your Desktop, in your dock, or other location of your choice, and when you open the file your browser will open a window or tab to the Mail Archive web page for the mac-access list. Such files can be mailed as attachments, and will also work on Windows machines in the whatever web browser is used. I have to say, that I believe this podcast is primarily of use for people who are unfamiliar with the concept of virtual machines. It doesn't really answer the question of step by step directions for a current VMWare Fusion installation, due to the vintage of the podcast, the older version of VMWare (3), and the operating systems (Mac OS X Tiger and Windows XP). Of course, this is based on my memory of listening to the podcast 5 years ago. HTH. Cheers, Esther On Oct 21, 2012, at 10:36, Gordon Smith wrote: > Afraid not.
