Apple Boot Camp
Now I know it's been almost a week since the official release of this software, but it isn't until now that I have come to fully understand and appreciate the ripple in the pond.
Boot Camp goes beyond any emulation software available on the Macintosh and Allows the Intel Mac User to install natively Windows XP 2nd Edition on their hard drive on a separate partition. The install process although warned to be very hard and is provided with a .pdf file with step by step instructions as the process could be potentially fatal (Erasing your whole hard drive).
Although this task may seem daunting (either finding a legitimate copy of XP or Installing or both) the one thing that is most challenging is accepting the fact that XP can run on a Mac. For a Mac Fan it's very difficult to accept the login sound and the cheesy hills background. However, what was most pleasing was that we could now play the video games in which we had once been denied. Although I saw first hand how the drivers can be a bit flaky I can be only optimistic as to what the future holds for apple and the overall effect this will have on the PC community.
