Windows ISO and key ( available to Lerner students through Dreamspark/Microsoft Imagine) Install and Configure Virtual Machines Installing VMWare

You can check this in MacOS by going to the Apple menu, and selecting "About this Mac". To ensure your machine can run VMWare with the resources to dedicate to a virtual machine, you'll want to ensure you have at least 8GB of RAM. VMware may not be the best option if you have a slower or older machine, as a running Virtual Machine can slow things down further. The primary advantage to this is that it is a shorter installation process, and Virtual Machines can be easily deleted from your computer to free up space.

VMWare is a useful tool which can be used to run another operating system (such as Windows or Linux) on your computer without going through the process of configuring Bootcamp.
