Key Features of VMware Fusion
VMware Fusion is a desktop application that lets you create and run virtual machines on your Intel-based Mac. VMware's first product for the new Intel Macs makes it easier than ever to take advantage of the security, flexibility, and portability of virtual machines. VMware Fusion provides an intuitive user interface for creating virtual machines, and for running preconfigured virtual machines created with VMware Workstation, VMware Server, and ESX Server. With VMware Fusion, you can run your favorite Windows applications on your Mac. You can also download virtual machines from the VMware Technology Network (VMTN) Web site, which has a growing library of virtual appliances with a wide range of pre-installed and preconfigured applications and operating systems.
You can use 32-bit and 64-bit guest operating systems in VMware Fusion virtual machines. VMware Fusion supports Windows, Linux, and Solaris operating systems in virtual machines.
Your virtual machines can have multiple virtual processors, taking advantage of the Intel Core Duo chips in today's newest Intel Macs.
VMware Fusion supports high-speed USB 2.0 for a huge range of devices. Even devices that do not have drivers for Mac OS X will work in a virtual machine.
Virtual machines seamlessly integrate with your Mac: you can cut and paste text between your Mac and your virtual machines, drag and drop files, and create shared folders on your computer so you can easily share files and folders.
Unity view displays your Windows virtual machine applications directly on your Mac desktop. The virtual machine window is hidden, and your virtual machine applications are displayed in the Mac dock, so you can use them just as you use your native Mac applications.
You can burn CDs or DVDs to your Mac's rewritable optical drive from within your virtual machine.

VMware Fusion, 2009-06-02 08:55:19.24
By Lamar (TX)
VMware Fusion is the best program to run windows on a mac and the store has it for a great price. It works great and just does what it is suppose to do. Games run a little slow but the programs that I use, mainly Microsoft Money works great.

About a week into Fusion, 2009-02-09 16:08:05.113
By George Laun (SD)
I am running OS X, Windows XP Home, and Windows 7 on an iMac and so far Fusion is performing as promised. Only negative is that if you once name a VM and want to rename it, there seems to be no way to do this. A minor inconvenience.

Waiste of money, 2009-02-07 22:25:03.693
By Bob Lehr (CA)
I’ve had this so-called product for over 30 days, and it still doesn’t work. VMWare does not offer telephone support for this software, and after at least 20 back and forth emails, I am still unable to use the product. Buyer beware!
