Are you sure about that?
It seems that bootcamp provides the necessary drivers to Vista in order
for it to work.
Now, where would one get the drivers if not from bootcamp?



I put in another post:

Drivers:

only a few seconds searching. Longer will probably reveal more.


Still, why bother with it... but the ethernet part is going to cause a problem tho if the iMac is your ONLY computer in the house. You'd have to download that first and burn a CD before committing to the install.
But how many people are going to bother with it on an iMac?


None. Was that the point of this thread, "The BEST WAY to install Windows on an Intel Mac". Nope.


No, it about a non-existant company called Pystar making generic PCs with OS X installed.
Remember Lindows?
M$ jumped all over that one.

I prefer UNIX over XP anyday and I'd find it a waste of time to try and install XP. It'd be cheaper to just get a low end PC for that.


Great. Did anyone ask you?

Yeah. And of course you just had to respond eh?
Typical troll.
