Hello All,

I have a spare MBP 2007 that I want to install Windows 8 on. I've upgraded the RAM to 4GB as well as added a faster hard drive. It currently has XP installed through BootCamp so I hope to take advantage of the $40 upgrade.

My question is- Do I need to upgrade bootcamp as well, or anything else to use Windows 8? I know that I won't get all of the gestures from my trackpad but I'm hoping to connect my Magic Trackpad (is that what it's called?) or pick up one made for Windows 8.

I have no problem purchasing Windows 8 and messing around with it, but if it is completely impossible I'd rather save the money!

Thanks a lot!

Paul
