My dad wants to buy a new computer for my mom for Christmas. We want to keep this really, really simple for my mom. I suggested a Mac Mini with Windows 8 on Boot Camp. So I have get to gather research in support of my suggestion. I don't know much about Boot Camp or Windows 8. When I switched to Apple, I cut all ties with anything to with Windows.
I need to know:
1) Will Windows 8 work in Boot Camp on a new Mac Mini?
2) Is there a good guide to setting up Boot Camp with Windows 8?
3) Can I remotely control her Mac -- to do updates, etc... even though she will live in Windows 8 (Boot Camp) for the most part?
4) Can someone point me to a good guide for setting up Remote control of a mac? I live about 2 hours from her, so I would like to be able to control it from my home.
Please note: having her convert to Mac is not an option. There are programs she absolutely needs apparently and I am not having that conversation again..
Thanks for your help..
