1)
We don't discuss illegal activity on this forum.
2) They are provided by Boot Camp.
3) Yes. Macs are really just PCs in pretty wrappers. They use more or less the same hardware, but with a different OS. So, yes, Windows will run just like it would on a PC of equivalent spec.
4) See answer to #3
5) Actually, this is a myth. Macs (both the native OS and the hardware) have right-click support. On notebook models, you can tap the trackpad with two fingers for a right click. Same thing in Windows.
6) Yes, with Paragon NTFS for Mac (a third party program that runs around $30).
7) Yes. If you decide that you're tired of Windows, the Boot Camp Assistant can remove the partition on-the-fly and return your machine to normal.
