I made the switch to VMware

Filed under: Podcasts — Administrator @ 6:12 am

I made a decision yesterday to let go of Parallels Desktop for Mac and choose VMware Fusion as my gateway to all Microsoft thing on my Mac.

Vmware just the Beta of Fusion 2.0 and made it  available to download and try for free. I have owned Fusion on my Macbook Pro for about eight months, and love it’s flexibility, and that it’s not a CPU hog. This new version of Fusion  includes support for multiple displays (since I have to of them, I’ve been waiting for this), improved printer integration, as well as easier to manage networking, and USB support. Lastly VMware has made some improvements to Unity (which runs Windows applications integrated within OS X).

Although switching from Parallels to VMWare should have been easy. Thanks to our “friends” in Redmond it was not.OIn next weeks show you will hear a piece that I recorded after fighting with Vista for 3.5 hours! It was not pretty, and the piece I recorded is bound to amuse some of you as I have not been this frustrated since back in the days I used the “other” OS. Make sure you listen next Wednesday as you should not have to go through this experience yourself.
