VMWare Fusion - how do I get ver 4

2011-09-18 Thread Thejazzden
Hello Listers I am running VMWare Fusion ver 3.1.3, but when I go to check for updates from the software I am told this is the latest version. Is this because ver 4r is a major release? If I download from the website are there any problems in upgrading that anyone knows of? Any comments welcomed

The reason is Dennis that the update isn't an upgrade. The purchase price is $49.95 until the end of the year. So there isn't an upgrade as such. But you know, if you are happy with 3 you're not going to gain a lot by upgrading. It is a little faster, that's true. But other than that there isn
