Windows XP on MacBook Pro with Boot Camp

On a fairly quiet Friday afternoon, I took a little time out. I rummaged around and found an XP disc and serial and installed it on my work laptop with Boot Camp.

The installation went very smoothly:

Download Boot Camp
Run assistant
Burn Apple drivers CD
Partition hard drive
Restart and go through usual Windows install
Install Apple drivers

No problem with the display, nuthin. It even recognises the iSight camera. I’ve had a harder time setting up “normal” PCs… Sony I’m looking at you.

So the Mac Vs. Windows debate is Officially Over. For me at least. PC peeps, I’m having my apple flavoured cake and eating yours too.

Now I have it though, what do I do? I installed it for three work reasons: browser testing, Sage Job Costing and Zinc. Obviously Half Life 2 is as-good-as-bought, but what else? Anyone?
