Can we expect a bootcamp update to support Vista, or are we stuck until Leopard??

TIA

Well until it is officially released (and we are pinged for $39.90) it is a time limited beta, so it is a moot point.

If you need Vista that bad perhaps you should reassess why you are using a Mac (seriously). There is no compelling reason for even Wind0ze bois to switch, even less for Mac heads.

Hi iW00t and thanks for your reply.

I am not at all desperate to use Vista, just curious to check it out. ;)

You can install Vista easily under Boot Camp by upgrading from XP. You can do it as a normal install as well, but I think there were extra things that needed to be done.

When I get my MacBook Pro soon I'm gonna do just that. I'm gonna install XP, and then use Vista to upgrade the XP installation. I hate Windows with all of heart, esp. Vista, but I wanna see just how much of an OS X copy it really is.
