[QUOTE="niytrus, post: 1011919, member: 146429"] Hey guys, I've been reading the forum for a bit now and tried to find this discussed, but couldn't find anything. Is anyone strictly running Windows 7 only (or for the most part) on a Mac? I am in the market for a new laptop, and the style and features of the MBP have caught my eye. Love the backlit keyboard, size, feel, etc. I need to run Windows primarily for my work, and would have little need for anything else. I plan on keeping Snow Leopard installed, but doubt it will get much use. Anyone else doing anything similar and experiencing any problems or inconveniences? From what i've seen most of the heating, right-click, backlight, and other problems have been corrected with new updates of BootCamp. Would I have any problems using an external HD, or does anyone foresee any problems I might experience? Is this even a practical solution? I would like to have access to both OS', but again, 90% of the time would be running Windows 7. Appreciate the help! [/QUOTE]
