Dear David,

I've installed Fusion (VMware) and it works seamlessly with Mac OS X  
Leopard. No special configuration required.

The installation of Windows XP requires a legal copy of the OS  
software on CD. The instructions are easy to follow. (I used the  
express Windows XP setup.) You may want to change the network setting  
to "Bridged" instead of the default "NAT" configuration depending  
what you plan to do in Windows.

Because of the way backups are made with Time Machine, I put the VM  
disk image inside a sparsebundle disk image. But this is not strictly  
required.

Best regards,
Will McKee.

Dear LLTIers,

We've purchased a few new 20" iMacs (2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo). We'd  
like to
install Windows XP and Fusion on one machine, mainly for  
demonstration purposes.
Fusion is supposed to make switching back and forth between the two  
operating
systems "seamless"--no rebooting necessary.

Can anybody provide Do's and Don'ts for installing Windows on this  
nice new Mac?
Is any preparation needed? Our machines are not managed by the  
university--we're
on our own.

Thank you.
