Has anyone else here tried to setup their bootcamped MBAs so it more like one OS with two display modes? I've done the following tweaks so far:
1. SmartKeys - changes keys in the windows registry. Made the left command key act as the control key. Now cut-copy-paste and other stuff acts the same between Lion and Windows 7. Bootcamp kind of dropped the ball with this one, IMHO, but the MBA keyboard is restrictive.
2. BootChamp - reboot Lion into Windows with a couple clicks. Windows will naturally restart into Lion by default. Pretty fast on the solid-state drives too, it almost doesn't seem like you're rebooting.
3. Unix2Dos - one of many utilities for correcting the newline problem when Mac text docs are transferred to Windows
4. Keep an SD card plugged in - lazy file transfering between the two OS's, doesn't eat up a valuable USB port.
5. Power and screen background options - mostly the same. Could even use the same background image if you were intense
I'm wondering if Windows 8 would work even better. It's more tablet-like similar to the Mac Launchpad.
