Boot Camp can run Vista, too
Some might say that using Boot Camp to run Windows XP on a Mac is so last week. Some enterprising hackers at the OSx86 Project seem to agree, as they have successfully gotten a preview version of Vista - Microsoft's upcoming Windows upgrade originally slated for 2003 - to run on an Intel iMac. Apparently there's some odd install hiccups to tinker with, as Engadget notes, so it sounds like this might not exactly be for the for the faint of heart Boot Camp Mac user.
Nevertheless, if you are the lucky owner of an Intel Mac and have either a desire or a need to play with Windows Vista, check out this OSx86 Project thread.

ditto, really couldnt give a hoot, and if i were apple id be readying a lawsuit for windows vista-osX, - really does swopping the way round of the magnifying glass in search (spotlight) and calling widget5s gadgets really count as innovation?

Yeah, Andy, at least Apple had the balls to continue to call widgets widgets when they ganked the idea from Konfabulator.

Can Boot Camp be used to run Windows 2000, or only XP and newer?
