It's kinda funny. I installed Windows in VMware, assuming I wouldn't give up certain aspects of Windows, but I find myself only using Windows when I need access to files I've been too lazy to transfer, and then it's on my old Windows laptop.
I listened to the new FS cast about JAWS 15, and it really does sound neat, but I think, in a lot of ways, it's too little too late, at least for me. There are loads of people who will never give up Windows and JAWS. I also thought it was funny that FS is touting new JAWS features VO has, and from what I can tell, has had for a very long time now.
Also, my wife is a PC gamer, and we need a new PC, so really, I'll always be a part-time Windows user.
That being said, I can't wait for that VMware 6 write up. $30 is a decent price to update and have Windows on my machine, when I need it, but no sense upgrading if the changes are only superficial.

I'll just order from overstock.com as they will have it for $29 and on a dvd and flash stick. plus I'm a member of a reporisity where I can get the software easier, and I can hardly understand the people at vmware fusion their accent is as thick as mashed marbles.

sorry, someone just made me laugh there. cheers.It doesn't matter how hard you try with certain companies to persuade / encourage them to implement an accessibility redesign / implementation. it costs money, downtime on a site that brings in an income, etc. so they don't really give a hoot. simple thing is phoning the company up to order products. that's what I do with certain trades.lewOn 8 Sep 2013, at 03:05, David Hilbert Poehlman <poehlman1@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:I’m not a vm customer smart ass.

I've been trying for years to make it work, the site needs a lot of work in general to be accessible. so try calling vmware and seeing if you can order it over the phone. Tc.
