Hello everyone, I wasn't sure if this was the right forum to post this if not could a Mod please move it?
I have a question concerning the installation of the XP OS on a Macbook Pro. I am planning to purchase a Macbook Pro with the intent of installing XP on a partition, here is the OS Newegg.com - Microsoft Windows XP Home SP3 for System Builders - Operating Systems, this is the version I want but it is Service Pack 3 and a customer left a comment stating "Cons: Don't buy this to run a dual OP with your Mac. Though Leopard has BootCamp for the purpose of dual OP's, you have to use service pack 2, and not service pack 3.
This is still unresolved by Apple." This left me questioning whether he was right or wrong and if I could still find a version with SP2.
Any help is greatly appreciated I have many Windows applications I would like to run with my Mac but I need clarification, thank you!
