6 Getting Started with VMware Fusion
VMware, Inc.
 Migrate your Windows PC to a virtual machine easily. The integrated
Migration Assistant helps you convert your physical PC to a virtual
machine to run on your Mac.
 Import virtual machines. You can import virtual machines created
with Parallels Desktop or Microsoft Virtual PC for Mac directly to
VMware
Fusion.
 Graduate from Boot Camp. VMware Fusion can use an existing Boot
Camp partition, or, you can import your Boot Camp partition into a virtual
disk, letting you reclaim your Boot Camp space. VMware Fusion eliminates
the need to reboot to access your Windows applications and files.
 Keep your Windows safe. You can take multiple snapshots—pictures
in time—of your virtual machines, keeping them safe in case of any
problem. VMware Fusion AutoProtect takes automatic, periodic
snapshots to keep your virtual machines safe from unexpected harm.
VMware Fusion includes a 12-month complimentary subscription to
McAfee VirusScan Plus.
 Get the most out of your Mac. Run 64-bit virtual machines, including
server operating systems like Windows Server, Linux Server, Mac OS X
Server, and Mac OS X Lion in virtual machines. Many modern Mac
systems are powerful enough to provide great performance and
productivity, even when running multiple virtual machines.
 Run multiple operating systems while protecting the integrity of
your Mac. You can safely run virtual machines isolated from the Mac by
using the hardware-level security and fault isolation of virtualization
solutions.
