W7 & bootcamp support

[199708]

Has Apple released full support for W7 in bootcamp? I remember they were saying by the end of the year. Can someone please confirm this please.

Not yet

Got this from MacLife. Ouch. But I guess it better that it's released when the bugs are ironed out.

The rep also believes that the Boot Camp update is still undergoing tests,

What do you need help with?

Thanks all.

I'm about to install w7, and was just waiting until there is W7 support, but seems like many people are using w7 already. I'll just bite the nail and do it now.

Happy new year!

Weird how it didn't happen.... I just picked up windows 7 retail and I'm itching to install. Guess I'll make a backup and give it a shot with what I have.

I've just installed 64bit W7 on my 2.4aluMB and 2.53 13" aluMBP. running perfectly well in bootcamp, also added VM fusionware and running absolutely mint as a virtual drive.

It runs perfectly if you're using a mouse, trackpad support sucks on every level. Which means that I cannot use my MBP outside my room with W7.
