The first video of 2014 is for our VMware Fusion users and features a demonstration showing how you can install OS X 10.9 Mavericks as a guest operating system inside of a virtual machine running on VMware Fusion 6.
This video tutorial is based on VMware Knowledge Base article Installing OS X 10.9 Mavericks as a guest operating system in VMware Fusion 6.0 (2056603).

- Apple’s End User license agreement allows you to install up to two additional copies of Mac OS X 10.9 on a Mac that is already running a retail version of the operating system and not a pre-installed version.
