[QUOTE="sograteful, post: 970186, member: 135952"] I have an OEM copy of Windows XP from my old Dell that broke. I tried installing it on my new Macbook (2 gb memory) and it seemed to download Windows properly, however, the computer seemed to really slow down and the cursor was not as responsive. Do you think it is because it was not a retail version, as Apple requests? If so, I would have an unanticipated expenses of $100-$200 to purchase Windows. Anyone know? [/QUOTE]
