[QUOTE="Thymen, post: 1493474, member: 243742"] Well... W7 64bit Pro up and running... Was not difficult, although at first I got an error message when creating the BootCamp partition. Some internet searching provided the answer, and from then on it was a breeze. At first the screen was as bright as the sun, and I could not find the screen brightness adjustment setting. System ran very hot (to the touch, however the fans did not kick in yet). But that was present in the Power Settings, so now it is running cool as usual. Appears to be quite stable. Still have to thoroughly test it, but so far so good. And performance is great: a score of 7.6 and higher in a scale of 7.9 of the Performance Assessment, except for the disc I/O; that one is stuck at 5.9. So now I have got the best of both worlds! Although I will mainly dwell in the realm of OS X. Thymen [/QUOTE]
