i just recently became a Mac convert and purchased a Macbook. I love the ease of use, but I now realize that must use Windows for a few of my work applications. I hate to fork over any more money to MS, so I'm trying to find the cheap way out.
I've read on the Bootcamp instructions that XP SP2 is required for successful install. Digging thru my old Dell desktop stuff (purchased 2005), I have the following OS disk:
Reinstallation DVD - Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 with Update Rollup 2.
Is this the same as XP SP2 with a few extra bells/whistles? Does anyone know if this should work?
Thanks for the help
