Yes but I was trying to use the gui and that's got a few issueds,
The command prompt was eluding me at the time.

What's the difficulty with configuring VirtualBox? I haven't tried it, but as I
recall, you can accomplish most of its configuration via the command line. I
don't know whether the graphical configuration tool is accessible with
VoiceOver.
Regards,
Jason.

That's the problem I've got currently.
I'd normally set jaws as a laptop keyboard which makes caps lock the jaws
key.
However for some reason it doesn't work in vm fusion,
Works fine in virtual box but that's not an easy one currently to setup.
I know this issue has been discussed on this list a number of times
Hopefully someone can refresh my memory for me.

Hi Simon,
Thanks. I'm leaning toward Fusion, because I like the idea of being able
to switch back and forth. I'm curious, though. Since the laptops don't have
an Insert key, what do you use for the JAWS key?
Thanks,
Donna

wondering about whether it's time to just buck up and install either bootcamp
or Fusion. Fusion is appealing because it would preserve the option to run
Windows and Mac simultaneously. I would be interested to hear thoughts on how
both options work in High Sierra, and if anyone can speak to it, Mojave. The
things I would do in Windows are pretty limited. Mostly, Word, Duxbury,
K1000--which could conceivably be replaced with ABBYY on the Mac--and some web
browsing when I can't get sites to play nice on the Mac.
