Hi, Anders: Two comments ... 1.) You can download a Windows 10 iso image without first purchasing a license here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10ISO I expect there are parallel sites for languages other than English. The above is English, but the iso you get is

Hi! I actually want to buy a windows 10 license just to try this out myself. I am not familiar with fedora at all. Am sadly a bit prejudiced about other distros of linux. Debian or nothing else *lol*. BUt i guess they are more similar to each other than different. /A > 14 jan. 2018 kl. 13:03

Yes, that's exactly what I'm thinking. Right now I'm playing with Ubuntu under Microsoft Windows in my BootCamp partition. Who'd have ever thought of such a thing even ten years ago? I'll wait for the release of Fedora under Windows WS, as that's the distro I'll want to keep being that I'm far

Hi! Some of the virtualbox gui interface is accessible but i wouldn’t use that if i were you. THere are commands for virtualbox from terminal so i guess you just ssh into your mac and do the configuring and then use it from the mac itself when all is setup. /A > 13 jan. 2018 kl. 17:09 skrev

Re: VMware Fusion 10.1.1 and BootCamp

Hi, Anders: Yeah, I'm starting to be tired of handing VMware a few hundred $$ every few years. I'm seriously thinking of switching to VirtualBox. I expect a steeper learning curve, but more consistent maintanance. Anders Holmberg writes: > Hi Janina! > Yeah typically i also have a tight budget

Hi Janina! Yeah typically i also have a tight budget this month. I had to pay 150 bucks for repairing the display of my moto g5 and i think i was stupid leaving it for repair as i have a nokia 8 now too. Therefore i can’t buy the upgrade for vmware fusion. Very frustrating. /A > 12 jan. 2018 kl.

Hi, Anders: I suspect that option might still be there for the paid version. It certainly was last time I used VMware, which was version 8.5.0 All I'm saying is that the option is not there in the 30day trial status of VMware 10.1.1. I upgraded the other day, through a couple iterations as

Do you, does anyone, have the phone number to the Microsoft Accessibility support desk? That's probably the quickest way to learn where/how to file the bug. I know they have a U.S. based team, in Devner if memory serves, for accessibility support. I don't currently have a Microsoft person on any

Re: VMware Fusion 10.1.1 and BootCamp

Thanks for the confirmation, Gena. Glad to know I'm not the lone stranger! As to why Windows would do this, I would suspect some kind of default Windows Defender security setting. But, they should add logic to not mess with audio when a screen reader process is running. That's likely a bug that

Hi, Gena: Well, you're giving me a great idea I hadn't tried. So far, I've been using audio via the 3.5 jack output to my Mackie mixer and then to speakers. But, I hadn't thought to try using one of my USB headphone devices. I have a few of those and will give that a try and report after I do.
