Earle,
That just solves the problem, only go the way of the VM. See the VM is
supreme since you can close Windows when it acts poorly. :) Actually I

not running Snow Leopard; I am only running Windows 7 at that point. It is
not a problem with Fusion running and Windows running in a virtual Window.

Abisee is offering a price break to k1000 users according to their website. It
still means you pay close to a grand for the eyepal, and if you already own the
K1000 and a scanner, putting out that kind of money for the convenience of
using a camera rather than a scanner seems a bit much. But may
At this point you can't buy the camera separately.

I understand it so far that braille support will stop in both zoom-ex and
