 VMware Fusion from Allume Systems is a software package for Intel Macs that allows you to configure and run virtual machines from within OS X. You'll be able to run Windows, DOS, Linux, and other x86 operating systems side-by-side from within OS X. This is an excellent choice for web and systems developers, or professionals who need to use Windows-only applications on a Mac.
Windows Applications on OS X Desktop
VMware Fusion allows you to run Windows applications directly on the OS X desktop. It features a special launcher for frequently used programs, and even supports application switching via Exposé.
• Full Mac Hardware Support
The software supports many features of modern Mac hardware. These include the iSight web camera, USB 2.0 ports, and multi-core processors. Fusion supports virtualization of 32-bit and 64-bit operating systems.
• Ease of Use
It's easy to install a Windows virtual machine on an Intel Mac with VMware Fusion. The Windows Easy Install walks you through all the necessary steps. You can even use an existing Boot Camp partition as a virtual machine.
• VM Snapshots
The Snapshots feature allows you to save the state of a virtual machine at any time. Doing so allows you to revert the PC back to a working state if it crashes or becomes corrupted. |
