[QUOTE="SammySlim, post: 740251, member: 48298"] You can certainly do that. But there are definitely much less expensive options if all you're going to be doing is running Windows. Depends on how much you really like the look, I guess. But yes, you can install windows via Boot Camp, make that your default OS for booting up, and keep OSX in a minimally-sized partition. Although that seems like a lot of trouble (including paying for a copy of Windows) given your intended purpose. I run Windows and Linux in virtual machines on my MacBook and have never looked back, for what it's worth. Cheers [/QUOTE]
