Latter-Day Mac

Apple Computer has just announced the public beta of "Boot Camp", a software product that allows Macintosh Intel systems to more easily run Windows XP and allows the user to choose between booting Windows or booting OS X when the Mac starts up.

This is significant for LDS Mac-users because it now means that we will now be able to run PAF on Windows on our Intel Macs.

You want to work on your family history? Boot into Windows XP. You want to do anything else on your mac? Boot back into Mac OS X.

Philip Schiller, Apple's senior vice president of worldwide product marketing, said in a statement:

"Apple has no desire or plan to sell or support Windows, but many customers have expressed their interest to run Windows on Apple's superior hardware, now that we use Intel processors. We think Boot Camp makes the Mac even more appealing to Windows users considering making the switch."

Boot Camp can be downloaded at Apple's web site.
