>>Have you tried this boot camp? If so, any comments?<<

Orion -

No, I haven't tried it yet. I'm actually leaving for Cozumel (finally) tonight, and have been busily preparing for the move.

I did download the beta of Boot Camp and took a look at the instructions. It looks like a very well thought out package. It gives you the ability to create a separate partition for XP "on the fly" which is cool. It also includes the ability to remove the XP partition later.

One big downside for me is that you have to have a "full" version of XP. An upgrade package won't do. I only have an upgrade disk, which has already been activated anyway, and I'm not likely to spring for a new full copy just for kicks.

I'm more interested in the Virtualization solution, anyway. I'd much rather have Windows in a window under Mac OS.
