Apple Runs Windows: Boot Camp

Posted on April 5, 2006 Under Gadgetry

All I can really say is, wow. Only a few weeks ago a pair of computer-nuts won $13,854 for successfully getting the new Intel based Mac computers running Windows XP. Today Apple introduced what they’re tentatively calling Boot Camp, the software that lets you install and run Windows XP on your Intel based Mac. That sure was gutsy, and although I doubt I’ll ever use Windows on my Macbook Pro, this has enabled a whole new wave of computer users– the ones with the pesky ‘I need Windows for my uber-complex CAD program’ excuses. I think we all know what’s happening here, I’d like to say Apple’s tipping point has officially arrived.
