2 out of 5 stars Doesn't handle two screens   January 25, 2008
 3 out of 4 found this review helpful

Many features were fine, but tech support confirmed that is does not include a feature for handling dual monitors, and that they didn't plan one. Beyond that, features seemed a bit thin compared to Parallels, which does handle dual screens and seems generally more robust.


5 out of 5 stars VMware-best of both worlds   January 25, 2008
VMware Fusion (Mac)This product gives the ability to use your system within either world your comfortable with. While still getting familiar with MAC, you can switch to Windows easily and use applications you are familiar with.
The set up and the operation of the product was supriseingly simple. Because of this VMware Fusion my MAC book is alot more freindly for me to use and alot more fun.



1 out of 5 stars TROUBLE, TROUBLE, TROUBLE!   January 23, 2008
 2 out of 3 found this review helpful

I bought this product based on positive reviews. I could not get it to install Windows despite following instructions precisely (although the instructions themselves are less than precise). I called VM's tech support twice and got absolutely NO help. Moreover, both technicians were abrupt and rude. They acted like I had interrupted their coffee break or something. I have previously installed Boot Camp and never had any problems with it. I bought VM Fusion because I just wanted to be able to use Windows without having to reboot. I'd give Fusion a zero rating if I could.


5 out of 5 stars THE ANTI-PARALLELS   January 21, 2008

Unlike Parallels, this product does what it's supposed to do. That's a huge deal to those of us who are not particularly computer-savvy. It's nice to know that there actually ARE some good products out there!


5 out of 5 stars Does exactly what I wanted it to!   January 18, 2008

Windows runs great, it was really easy to install. I have Leopard so I actually didn't even use the CD that came in the box, just the serial number after downloading Fusion 1.1 which is made to work with Leopard. Easy install was just that - EASY!

Only two things confused me slightly, so here is the info in case you have the same questions:

1. 1.1 asks you whether you want your virtual machine to be read only or read/write. If you pick read only windows can still save/write files, it just can't access or write to the home folder on your mac - giving you better security. You can still swap files back and forth between the operating systems even if you choose read only.

2. Windows works straight away after it goes though all the automated installing, but you still have to click the activation button in the right bottom corner, or your programs such as media player will say your copy of windows is bootlegged. After I activated all was fine!

Really so happy overall!! and you can't beat this price, especially with the rebate! Highly recommended.
