[QUOTE="Thundermoon1994, post: 520795, member: 24303"] The firmware lock (or whatever it's called) is something you have the option of setting by using the Leopard Install DVD. I simply sets a password that is required when doing anything that changes any firmware settings, such as booting from something other than Mac OS X. Yes it is safe to install XP on your MacBook Pro with Leopard. If it weren't safe, Apple wouldn't have created Boot Camp. That being said, it is important to use your Windows partition just like any other responsible Windows user and keep up-to-date virus, spyware, and malware protection. [/QUOTE]
