Now that Apple has started making Intel-based computers, you'd think it would be easy to run Windows on one.

Not so! It's taken quite a while and you never know, these screenshots could be fake:

Of course there's still the question of why you'd buy a Mac to run Windows.

Technical note: Windows XP is made only for Intel x86 CPUs, which is exactly what the new Macs use.

Unlike Mac OS X, Windows needs a BIOS to start. However Macs use an EFI to boot instead. EFI is a better system that allows hardware manufacturers to provide a single EFI driver for any OS. Until Microsoft add this to Windows, Windows and Macs are still not 100% compatible.

You would think that Mac and Windows Stay away from each other. I think the Windows Xp Software is the best I have ever had.

Soon there will be no difference from one digital machine to the next. Sometimes you won't even know if you're talking to a machine or a human!

#1 reason to install Windows XP on your Mac.

OMG it's official!!!!

More and more people are buying and loving Macs. To make this choice simply irresistible, Apple will include technology in the next major release of Mac OS X, Leopard, that lets you install and run the Windows XP operating system on your Mac. Called Boot Camp (for now), you can download a public beta today.

its too bad that SIMMONS doesn't make computers.
