Apple's Boot Camp has
stirred things up quite a bit around the net. eWeek states:
"CIOs have a lot invested in Windows and aren't going to junk the OS for Apple. However, if a CIO can get a twofer - Windows XP and Mac OS on one machine - a flyer may make some sense." In an analysis, eWeek concludes:
"Boot Camp might give businesses and consumers another reason to look at the Mac, analysts and IT managers say." Cnet
wonders if all this is good news for MS, while Ars looks at the
limitations. Apple also released
firmware updates for Intel Macs, which supposedly
add BIOS support to EFI so you can just boot an XP (or Linux!) CD
without using Boot Camp.

Now the Apple marketing machine needs to start referring to Windows as the "Legacy OS". It's a classic IT marketing tool.
"Dual boot to support your old legacy Windows applications while you move into the more powerful, more secure world of OSX"
I can see it now...
