I think the speed of vmware fusion is fine, of course, it won't be as fast as
boot camp, since it's using a virtual machine, also, fusion allows you to
install windows without sighted help.

Hey,
In my experience, the latest vmware fusion is pretty fast! I run a few
apps on it, and they all work great. I would say to have more than 2GB
or ram, so that you can give enough to windows and enough to OSX and

Hi Alex,
As I said, I recommend VmWare myself, but Bootcamp is standard on all 10.6
systems. I just think VmWare makes more sense because you will ultimately get
a working standard WIndows install, with the added benefit of being able to use

I see. I am fine with grabbing a sighted person to do that sort of
thing, provided I get a working windows install out of the deal. Is
bootcamp standard on all 10.6 systems, or only on certain ones? I have
a bn apex and iPod, so I would get a Mini rather than a laptop since
the apex/iPod already ha
Hi Alex,
What you might want to understand is that Bootcamp is, for all intents and
purposes, running Windows natively. All the Bootcamp Assistant does for you is

to go with the
Hi all,
Just a quick question. If I win the lottery and get a mac, I will want
Windows on it to run things like audio games. I was told that vmware,
which seemed like a perfect solution, is slower than native windows
and is not a good solution due to its lack of speed. What have people
found when r
