Re: macbook hardware and windows XP OS
Bootcamp comes preinstalled on the new intel/mac computers. Its a very basic program and but have to do most of the work like choose how much hard drive space you want to allow for the mac side and then the pc side etc. I am not totally sure but I do believe you can purchase Bootcamp through Apple.

Bootcamp from what I remember is like this, when you want to for example work on your PC side and you are already using your Mac side, you have to re-start your computer and then choose which side you want to work on, the PC side or the Mac side. But with the other two programs below you don't have to do that you can run your Mac side and PC at the same time.

There are two other programs that are way better, in my opinion and do it all for you they are............

Vmware Fusion
and the other one is called Parallels.

I have installed and used them both.

They both installed with no problems and worked exactly the way they said they would, anybody with very little computer knowledge, I think could install either of them.

Once Windows is installed by either of the above programs, your PC runs just like any other PC would, all the updates are done automatically etc. everything is the same.

I personally use and prefer Parallels, its more user friendly than VmwareFusion, in my opinion.

Having said that I do know that VmwareFusion has had an update or two since I used it.
