[Athen] running JAWS on a dual boot MAC

I've found that running Windows software in Fusion mode only allows screen programs (capture, readers) to translate or capture windows that are running on the Windows side. Something I haven't tried is CodeWeavers Crossover Mac to install the Windows screen reader or capture program on the OS X side of things. It may or may not work. CodeWeavers does have a demo version that is usable for 30 days, if you are interested in trying that out.

Your welcome Howard, please feel free to ask any questions as needed. I
can also test out other AT for you, provided I have it available.

Being a MAC idiot (the parameters may go beyond that), I was wondering if
JAWS and other adaptive software can run on a dual boot MAC. We're
proposing a class on usable and accessible media design here at CU and I'm
wondering if a MAC lab would work for this.

(And Sean, if you're out there, send me your gmail account).

Thanks in advance,
Howard
