Is this true and if so, why?

also, i have a copy of xp that came with my dell a couple years ago. the disk allowed me to install when i formatted my harddrive so i am assuming yes.

thanks in advance. can't wait to get a mac
I know this thread is older but, dell XP cd-roms will only install on Dell hardware. Don't ask me how they do it but it is true. You will need a non-OEM or "retail" XP SP2 cd-rom.
