Apple Bootcamp
Apple have released a beta of Bootcamp, software that allows a Mac to run Windows operating system. This means that Mac users can now install and choose from running Windows or Mac OS without any issues or technical know-how.
From the looks of it, it is just what is needed to bring Windows users into the Mac community. If retailers start to sell dual-boot Macs, there could be a rush on, especially for the exceptionally well designed Mac Mini.
I've often been tempted to go back to Macs (haven't touched them since Uni - years ago), but not had the need to actually buy a computer - now I know I can use it as another Windows box if Mac & I don't get on, it is a serious temptation. I would love to have a Mac Mini in the lounge connected up to the (forthcoming) plasma, for use as my media centre.
Go have a look at the BootCamp information on the Mac site, and see if it is for you as well.
