It's worth a try, don't get me wrong, but I'm just not totally convinced how great the result yielded would be. I'd be interested in knowing if you get through it. Just know however, YMMV.

Hi William

I could do that, but I wasn't sure it would be good enough to read the Mac screen.
If you think it would get me through it I could give it a shot.

Thanks.

Hi



I received my first Mac on Saturday. I have done a lot of studying
and I think I am quite proficient at the screen-reading with it.



However, I am very undecided about whether to use Windows with
Bootcamp or with VMWare. For my work, I do need to use Windows. This
is a high spec machine so I wanted to take advantage of that. But I have some questions.



I like the idea of having VMWare, so I can "flick" between different
operating systems. However, precisely please what are the advantages
of running it in Bootcamp as opposed to a virtual machine? If I ran
it as a Virtual Machine, what disadvantages would I notice? For
example, would there be any kind of delay when using a Windows screen-reader?



My other question relates to installing Windows. I've read a lot, and
there does not seem to be an easy way described with complete
accuracy as to how to install Windows without vision. This may seem
like a strange question, but if I booked an appointment at an Apple
store to get some sighted help, is that good etiquette? Are they
likely to say no because I need to install Windows?

I have the MacBook Pro, external keyboard and the Apple Superdrive
which I could take along there.



Thank you for any help.
