VMware Fusion’s New Version Promises The Mac Users Flawless Windows 7 Experience


Ever since Apple decided to discard its PowerPC series of CPUs in favor of Intel dual core processors, the efforts to run Windows on Macintosh based machines have gained momentum. Apart from Apple’s own Boot camp utility that gave the previous generation Macintosh users run XP, veteran users swear by the convenience offered by VMware. Recently VMware Fusion made available a new update with notable updates and fixes.

The users who have used earlier versions of VMware had to deal with a fair number of teething troubles. However, the new release addresses most of the glitches successfully. The new version 3.0 of VMware Fusion is speedier and offers a noticeable performance boost. The team behind the development of VMware Fusion also optimized the application for Apple’s latest OS named Snow Leopard. The advanced architecture of the OS and its compatibility with 64-bit kernel has helped the team to fine tune the application.

Macs are generally known for their superior graphics capabilities and the latest version of VMware is equipped with Direct X 9.0c and OpenGL 2.1. What this means is that the gamers will now be able to play the new Windows games on Macs smoothly. Now the application allows the user to share the contents of Windows with those of Mac. A feature called Mac Finder is immensely helpful in this context. Initial tests have shown that Windows 7 runs smoothly on Mac under VMware Fusion. Its affordable price tag of $79.99 is likely to find favor with the majority of the Mac users.
