[QUOTE="Dysfunction, post: 1256141, member: 51052"] 1. You need OS X installed to run bootcamp, which will allow your dual boot. 2. You will need to either get restore disks from Apple, or get a full retail install of an OS. Don't waste your time with 10.4. The second digit range is a major release. So 10.3 is an upgrade from 10.2 etc. These are paid upgrades (last couple have been about $30). 3. There is no activation and no 85 digit serial number. As long as it's either the correct gray disk (restore) for your machine, or a black (full retail version) it'll work. [/QUOTE]
