Getting Started with VMware Fusion
VMware, Inc.
Run a wide range of sophisticated 3D applications and games
–
VMware Fusion lets you take advantage of the combination of your
Mac’s advanced graphics and Windows 7 new desktop with Aero
animations. With DirectX 9.0c Shader Model 3 support and OpenGL 2.1
support for Windows, you can run your favorite Windows games and
applications better than ever without having to reboot.
Create virtual machines easily
– The VMware Fusion New Virtual
Machine Assistant guides you through the process of creating a virtual
machine. Windows Easy Install and Linux Easy Install make it easier than
ever to install your favorite operating system on your Mac.
Migrate your Windows PC to a virtual machine effortlessly
–
VMware Fusion lets you use your Mac and take your old Windows PC
with you. With the VMware Fusion integrated Migration Assistant, you
can convert your physical PC into a virtual machine to run on your Mac
in a few steps, and access all of your old PC applications and files.
Graduate from Boot Camp
– If you have been running Windows using
Boot Camp on your Mac, but want to be able to run Mac OS X and
Windows side by side, VMware Fusion can directly access your existing
Boot Camp partition. You can even import it into a virtual machine,
letting you reclaim your disk space.
Bring your other virtual machines to VMware Fusion
– If you have
been using Parallels Desktop or Microsoft Virtual PC for Mac to run
Windows on your Mac, VMware Fusion imports your existing virtual
machines and takes them to the next level of desktop virtualization,
thanks to the combination of stability, performance, and ease of use
available through VMware Fusion.
Keep Windows safer on your Mac
– With advanced safety features like
multiple snapshots and AutoProtect, VMware Fusion enables you to
keep your virtual machines safe from unexpected harm. And with a
12-month complimentary subscription to McAfee VirusScan Plus you
can keep Windows spyware and viruses away.
