Star Boot Camp: Review, Hurting Mac Developers?
Linked by Thom Holwerda on Sun 9th Apr 2006 12:56 UTC
Apple In case you did not get tired of it yet, here are some more articles on Apple's Boot Camp. Firstly, everybody's favourite Microsoft zealot Microsoft user Paul Thurrot has reviewed Boot Camp: "While Boot Camp isn't perfect, it's still a semi-miraculous solution that lets you dual boot between Mac OS X and Windows XP on an Intel-based Mac. That, folks, is what's known as the best of both worlds in these parts, and I'm personally very excited at the prospect of, or at the opportunity to, purchase Apple notebooks and desktops in the future." Secondly, "while the lower barrier for Apple users to run Windows applications will lead to growth in the share of users running Apple hardware, overall the effect on Mac developers will probably be negative. The reason? In a word: competition."

Thurrott. Not the best of person to be reading this from.

Typical comments such as he believes the boot setup should be more like Windows but being a beta he's sure it'll get *better* later?

Gads... more like Windows boot setup couldn't be further removed from my definition of better.
