Seamlessly run Windows, Linux and other PC operating systems on your Intel-based Mac.
VMware Fusion gives you the freedom to:
Unite Windows and Mac OS X
Say goodbye to the Start menu and Taskbar and run Windows applications directly from the Dock. Minimize Windows applications to the Dock, switch between Windows or Mac applications with Exposé, find and instantly launch any Windows application, drag and drop files between Windows and the Mac, and use familiar Mac keyboard shortcuts to copy and paste between Windows and Mac applications.
Run Windows on your Mac—no reboot required
VMware Fusion makes it easy to install and run Windows, Linux and other operating systems on your Intel-based Mac as virtual machines, giving you the power to use multiple operating systems simultaneously—and without rebooting your computer.
Install Windows on your Mac with unparalleled ease
Installing Windows has never been easier, thanks to the Windows Easy Install feature in VMware Fusion. Just answer a few simple questions and insert your Windows installation disc—VMware Fusion will automatically create a Windows virtual machine that is optimized for your Mac. You can also use the New Virtual Machine Assistant to create virtual machines that can run Windows, Linux, BSD or any of the more than 60 different operating systems supported by VMware Fusion.
Break out of Boot Camp
Already running Windows XP on your Mac using Apple Boot Camp? No problem. VMware Fusion automatically detects your Boot Camp partition and lets you access it as a virtual machine, giving you the flexibility to run Windows XP alone or side-by-side with Mac OS X.
Make the switch
VMware Fusion makes it easier than ever for Windows users to make the switch to a Mac. Use the free VMware Converter Starter Edition to transform your Windows PC into a VMware Fusion-compatible virtual machine, then copy the virtual machine from your PC to your Mac.
Built exclusively for the Mac
Works the way you work
The Cocoa- native user interface gives you features you expect including customizable toolbars to make VMware Fusion work just the way you work.
Easily move your virtual machines
Your complete virtual machine is stored in a single, easy-to-manage package. Move your virtual machines to an iPod, another hard drive, or Mac simply by copying a file.
Extend the power of your Mac
Play DirectX 8.1 games on your Mac
VMware Fusion offers experimental support for hardware-accelerated 3D graphics in Windows XP virtual machines, making it possible to run DirectX 8.1 applications and play select 3D games on your Mac.
Create powerful multi-core virtual machines
Only VMware Fusion gives you the ability to leverage the power of the dual-core processors found in most Intel-based Macs with exclusive support for VMware Virtual SMP technology.
Run 64-bit operating systems
VMware Fusion is compatible with a wider range of operating systems than any competing product and offers exclusive support for 64-bit operating systems and virtual machines with up to 8 GB of memory.
Run as many virtual machines as you want
Only VMware Fusion can use the full 16 GB of memory available with the Mac Pro and Xserve, giving you the ability to run a large number of virtual machines at the same time.
Access platform-specific devices
VMware Fusion lets you get the most out of your Mac hardware—from the SuperDrive to iSight cameras—in any virtual machine. You also get complete support for proprietary video cameras, GPS, Bluetooth, and other USB 2.0 devices that only work in Windows.
Choose a wide range of network options
With VMware Fusion allows virtual machines to safely share a single network connection with effortless switching between wired and wireless AirPort/Wi-Fi connections. Add up to 10 virtual network interfaces to support public/private networks, or use host-only networking to keep virtual machines isolated from the network.
Take control of your PC with ease
VMware Fusion runs Windows inside a secure and isolated virtual machine, protecting Mac OS X and your Mac hardware in the event that Windows crashes or becomes unstable. VMware Fusion also gives you the ability to suspend and protect your virtual machines.
Turn back time when Windows goes awry
Protect your PC—take a Snapshot of your virtual machine to save a stable state of your PC that you can quickly return to if something goes wrong.
Resume where you left off
Use the Suspend feature in VMware to freeze the exact state of your virtual machine so that you can quickly resume work without restarting Windows and opening all your applications.
The possibilities are endless
Freedom to choose over 60 operating systems
Only VMware Fusion gives you the most complete support for Microsoft Windows Vista Business, Enterprise, Ultimate, Windows XP, Linux, Solaris, or any of the more than sixty supported PC operating systems. Share files between virtual machines and your Mac with drag and drop, copy and paste text, and resize virtual machine desktops with ease.
A new way to distribute applications
Take advantage of over 550 third-party virtual appliances, which are ready-to-use virtual machines designed to meet specific needs, and available to Mac users from the VMware Virtual Appliance Marketplace with just the click of your mouse.
Change the way you think about your Mac
VMware Fusion is backed by nearly a decade of proven, high-performance virtualization technology. As the winner of more than 100 awards for its industry-leading virtualization software, VMware is trusted by million of users worldwide.
