Hey People,
I have a question about using Boot Camp.
I'm planning on buying a new 'MacBook Pro' and intend to use OSX. The only problem is that it'll be my first MacBook and I've always been a Windows person.
The thing is that I have several adobe products (photoshop and illustrator) which I'll need to use and will have to use them on Windows, would they work in bootcamp?

One other thing is the gaming, would games like (Hitman Blood Money and Civilization IV) work on a MacBook Pro with Windows in Bootcamp?

Other than that I won't be needing the windows OS that much. Would the apps indicated above work in bootcamp, and would games work just as they'd do on a similar windows laptop?

thanx

Boot camp allows Windows to be installed on your Mac.

It's not emulation. You are really running Windows on your Mac, at the same speed it would be running at on any other PC laptop of the same exact specifications.

So yes, all those programs/games should work.
