Oh thanks so much, good to know I won't have problems with jaws. As I said the man at the apple store actually suggested parallel but if fusion does the trick and most people seem to like it I guess maybe that's the way to go especially if I'm going to be asking for advice on the use of the program. The man at the store thought parallel was a better choice but didn't state the reasons why. Don't mean to be repetative but can apple configure voiceover for me when shipping the imac to me to start up automatically? Also if using fusion will voiceover speak on the log screen to help me navigate weather I want to boot mac or windows?

It doesn't matter whether it's running as a duel installation (i.e. bootcamp) or as a virtual machine (e.g. VM Fusion). I am curious if any of these people who keep saying parallels is inaccessible have actually tried using it lately, or whether they are just passing along old hearsay that might now be obselete. I think Alex at least mentioned that he hadn't used it lately and things might have changed. I was told fairly recently that Parallels was accessible with JAWS, but that there was some problem with the JAWS key which is typically the insert key by default. I've never tried installing Windows on my Mac in any form though so I don't know. I'm just worried though that this might be one of those accessibility rumours that gets propogated longer than it should because of course no one tests the thing anymore because they are told it's not accessible. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
