Paul We had it running Windows 7 64-bit and also Windows 8 64-bot. Fusion 4 does not work too well under Mountain Lion. In my experience Fusion 5 is well worth the upgrade if you need to use Windows and want it virtual.

From time to time (about once a fortnight) I need to run Windows under VMWare Fusion to check out Windows applications. I am currently running the latest release of VMWare Fusion version 4. this is not too bad with a Windows/XP virtual machine but is painfully slow with a Windows 7 64 bit. I hear that VMWare Fusion is faster but am somewhat unwilling to pay the £40 or so upgrade cost. Do those of you who have Fusion 5 find it noticeably faster than Fusion 4, especially for Windows 7 64 bit? Many thanks.
