a 500 megahertz PC with 128 mb of ram running Windows 98 will cut it. (as long as you have DirectX 8.1 or newer (but for it to run, i would get DiretX 9))
 PS: you can download boot camp from apple's website (www.apple.com )PS(AGAIN!):: sorry for that spammy comment. |

................................................................................................................................................................................google......................................................boot.................................................................camp. Also, this thread is over 4 months old. Good question, but its old. Boot camp is a partition program created by apple so that mac users could partition their Hard drive and install windows operating system on it. Then it burns a disk of drivers so that the windows os can use the mac's hardware. It's pretty slick.

Why wouldn't you just use PC hardware? I mean...it IS significantly cheaper for more power.

It IS less reliable, with a worse OS, so many security flaws that a baby could plant a virus, and little to no tech support. Macs are the way to go. I've had my computers hard drive replaced twice, and the motherboard replaced once, with free software upgrades for the inconvenience, and it cost me nothing. Got anything like THAT?!

I've had my hard drives not break since 1997 for free, and I've had limitless stores of free software! (I have had over 11 hard drives so far, most of which I still have, and none of which have been rendered unusable.)
Also, my programs don't work on Mac, so that's automatic fail right there.  --------------------  Signature by Rewrite. My talent comes from deep within...like vomit! |

1) Viruses don't appear on mac because people that make them want havoc, and since Windows is so much more widespread, it's better for them. If mac beats windows (I doubt it, but it is gaining), I guarantee that Viruses hit Macs harder then they have right now. 2) Mac and PC hardware is Identical, minus BIOS and price. 3) Yes, almost every part in my computer has a lifetime warranty. Beat that. |
