Can it be done?

I would like to try Ubuntu 64bit on my Mac via Bootcamp, can it be done, like are all the drivers available for it to work properly?

It can, without much trouble, unfortunately there are no drivers for Linux available via Boot Camp.

Are there other places i can find drivers for it, or should i just forget about it?

I'd bet money that someone, somewhere has built drivers for it.

You may need to get the drivers for each component, but most of the stuff is standard. WHy not just run Fusion?

ubuntuforums.org has a wealth of information - and it's a very friendly forum as well

Depending on the model, everything should just work. You can't use your Boot Camp drivers that are on the OS X DVD, but Ubuntu provides it's own drivers for what are mostly standard components.
