Dual Boot Choice at Startup

How would I make my mac give you the choice between windows and mac every time without holding down option like maybe an firmware entry.

Install rEFIt. You'll get a graphical menu on bootup.

rEFit is good but probably overkill for what you need. Instead, try Bootpicker, free software from here:

Works great and doesn't require fiddling with the EFI.

That'd have been a good alternative if the software was actually available still.

Sorry about that, didn't know Mike was doing an upgrade. I downloaded it around two months ago and it does work great. Looking forward to the new version.

Regards.
