Windows on Mac


By Q-Bert - Posted on 13 September 2007

So, I received my new macbook pro on Tuesday, and transfered all my old Powerbook's content unto the new Pro.
I used the Firewire migration tool and selected "Everything"

Right...

So, on Wednesday night, I reinstalled OSX on the Pro... Copied my data over, and downloaded and installed all the software I used regularly. Everything works fine now.

Now it's Thursday morning and I decide to install Boot Camp and get Windows XP on this puppy. Well, as I look at Windows XP installing itself on the MacBook Pro, I am struck by a few feelings:


  • Man, Windows is ugly during installation. I swear the thing boots up in 160x100 or some shit...

  • How much crap is this thing putting on my drive??

  • This

  • Feels

  • Wrong

are you putting Linux on? You might as well muck the thing up more.

I would love to hear your lame excuse for putting Windows on it in the first place.

Kind of like buying a Porsche and adding a Lada engine to boost performance.
