[QUOTE="Noels, post: 674178, member: 49942"] Kingofnothing, You can buy an OEM copy of Windows XP much cheaper than that. Go here: [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832116056[/url] This will work with BOOT Camp, it's the same version I bought for Boot Camp... This is the SP2 version; there is also an SP3 version for $5 more, but I would buy the SP2 version to be sure for now because Mac is just now changing over to permit SP3 in Boot Camp. You need an updated version of Boot Camp to use SP3. After you install XP, then update Boot Camp and upgrade to SP3 later from Microsoft for nothing. Good luck, Noel [/QUOTE]
