If you bought it new, then you are entitled to a free upgrade (+$10 admin fee) to OS X Leopard which has Bootcamp that allows you to install XP on a separate partition.
Otherwise, you will need to either buy the upgrade to Leopard or install XP within a virtual machine using software from Parallels or VMWare.
QUOTE Thanks
