The major advantage of vmware fusion 2 is faster performance, both for

so you don't notice any sluggishness on the mac side while running

I'm writing to inquire as to any preliminary steps I need before upgrading my

advice would be much appreciated.

Hello,
Screen resolution will change if you change screen modes. This will
for sure mess up the video intercept. If you use full screen mode, and
switch apps, VMWare pops out of full screen mode, and resolution is
changed. Does anyone know if newer versions of JAWS beyond 9 fix this
flaw?
Agreed. Those of us who use VoiceOver may not be on all the
technology lists and if it's something that benefits us all, I think
we should hear about it.

The Canadian approach, also known as a waste of taxpayer money, was to
put braille on the bills. One full braille cell representing $5, 2
