I have read the posts, and the links, they are inconclusive at best in support of the "Macs are PCs re: your future law school's network and required exam software!"; because of the way bootcamped Windows interfaces with a software that LOCKS DOWN your computer. If it does not find the right software, drivers, etc where and when it is looking for them it makes all the difference as it will not function unless everything is just so.
Unless you can speak to the university blowing smoke up my ass as a member thereof, your reading material is little else than bathroom reading. Good to know, but may or may not be functionally useful (you know, like most reading in law school). I am not calling your posts functionally useless, just authored by a blowhard and silly.
Unfortunately, I have to take the word of the head of the school's computing office above that of Apple and Wikipedia -- because a representative of the school who deals with the network on a daily basis has much more knowledge thereof than Wikipedia or the author of Apple's Q&A. As disappointing as it may be to a troll like me (you know, someone who wants to switch to Mac but cannot...right) I may indeed have to suck it up for 5 more semesters.
I don't understand how you took my comment as missing the sarcasm in your signature, given that I referenced it for that very reason.
I appreciate the time of those who have cared to post in a manner other than A-d'oh's. Ado, I suggest you get out of the basement, run a comb through that ZZ Top beard, and face the day -- Mac fanboy is not a well-regarded self-appointed title on a resume.

If you think this is inconclusive, I can't help you. But, you might want to brush up on your "reading comprehension" skills before classes start. Oh, and you could always use your school's desktop computers for test taking if you were still afraid, as was mentioned in an earlier post.

Not the first time an IT guy didn't understand something related to Apple.

Thanks Lexie, I'll try to remember that when I head into law school tomorrow morning... and in the coming weeks when I take my last set of finals with examsoft on my mac, running bootcamp, as I did the last time. Please forget that I tried to help, and enjoy vista.
