I put Windows on my Mac Mini just to show it's possible. I use my machine to show off Mac's product, because all my friends have NO IDEA what macs are doing now adays.
I never actually run my Windows partition, so it usually just sits there.... but in the rare instance someone says "what if I want to run <window product> ?" I say "You can use bootcamp."
Mac users may cringe at the thought of WindowsXP on their machine, but nobody says you have to run it. However, the truth is that the more compatible a mac machine is, the more sales they're going to get. I don't know if you notice but with this movement Mac is basically creating an industry of itself. It is telling their customers "You used to run Windows? No problem. Use it on a mactel natively. When you want to use OS X (a far superior product) It's there for you too. Enjoy your products, take best of both worlds."
I see most people taking the above situation, and turning it to: "I use OS X most of the time. I use Windows XP in the rare case I have to."
More people using it, more software written for it.
More software written for, more people using it. More people using it, more people realizing and sharing it's a superior product. More people realizing, less people using Windows. Less people using windows, the world a happier, safer, and less vulnerable place.
You know I used to hate mac. I totally cringed at the mere mention of it. I enjoyed linux, unix, and windows because you felt like you had control of the product. I always jumped on OS 9 or some such and was disgusted you had to drag drop the CD to your trash bin. Just the simple little things to me are terrible.
OS X changed my mind on this. I finally bit the bullet and checked it out, I was pleasantly surprised how well the product ran, how more "realistic" the UI felt and most of all a built in terminal that brought me right back home to my *nix world. It to me was a mixture for the two things I enjoy most, the console of unix and a K.I.S.S. UI. My only catch when buying my mac at that point was realizing it would only run OS X products. If it wasn't written for OS X, that computer would never see a program or game I may want it to run. Lo and behold the intel chip idea comes out, bootcamp, and now you aren't emulating winXp, not even a virtual machine desktop, you're literally running it, natively. 100%. Driver support introduced. World is a happy place.
Hopefully the trial version and future of bootcamp isn't radically changed. But right now, I absolutely love it.
I see Macs as a quality product that is compatible with everything, (I even run a LiveCD version of Slackware Linux called SLAX on it... I'll learn how to partition my hard drive more however and boot it from the partition later). I'm looking forward to how macs will move on from this point.
