Download the latest VMWare Fusion images from Modern.IE for Internet Explorer Testing. This bash script is primitive and simple. Anybody who would like to expand on this is more than welcome to.

Temporary fix for using symlinks with google drive (gdrive) on mac
Because gdrive will not actually sync symlinks from your computer to gdrive, you should temporarily do the opposite.
For example, I wanted to have a symlink from my ~/Sites directory to automatically sync with gdrive, so i did the simple command:
ln -s ~/Sites/drive ~/Google\ Drive/mSites/
That will not sync at the moment.
So instead I made a directory in gdrive and did a symlink back in my ~/Sites directory
