Windows For Mac?

[Azalroth]

As some of you already know I'm into Technology and I work on an IT Support team. We started having a discussion here at work about this new Boot Camp program that Mac is endorsing for their computers to run Windows XP /w SP2

 

Apples Boot Camp 1

 

Apples Boot Camp 2

 

 

Discuss...

so first mac's switch to intel processors, hrm,

 

than they start booting windows, hrm,

 

I guess if you can't beat them eh?

[garsk]

is this a sign that apple is turning a page and joining the rest of the world?

and of course they're playing it off like "see, Mac's can work with anything.... they're VERSATILE"

I considered getting a Mac once. The next day I found out I had a concussion.

I have a apple powerbook g4 for work. I hate it.

Well, it's a gamble. I can see sales increasing as the yuppies buy them up because they are trendy, and now with the windows os easy to get into. And I can see Apple losing thier niche and identity, thus less sales to the hc mac users.

I don't see one being able to run XP without OSX, maybe it's a shot to get people in and show them the "superiority" of OSX, especially if they make boot camp crashy.

Money hungry bastards, more likely. ;)

its a sad sad day when a "windows for mac" thread gets more action than any other thread on a board that ISNT for computer geeks.

I have an emac and I love it. But it's a pain in the ass because I can't use window's programs on them..

fuck... that sounded like the perfect segway for an infomercial whoring out the new windows for mac.

Windows on mac is like feces of toast. IT'S JUST PLAIN WRONG.

 

end of discussion.

Well I'd have to say I agree with all of those statements and have thought of them all at some time or another.
