http://www.tidbits.com/ Apple released not just one, but a whole series of updates that finally enable most (but not all) Intel-based Macs to run Windows 7 via Boot Camp. en-us Copyright 2010 TidBITS Publishing Inc.

Oh, well, it's just one lost sale, Apple.

Limited success seems a big strong to me. The most common response to this update to Boot Camp that I've seen has been "Wait, Windows 7 wasn't supported? Cause it's been working fine for me." I know we've been using it on Macs of all shapes and sizes since the release of 7, and other than one issue with a dual display during installation, everything went very smoothly. Heck I've been using Win7 as the primary OS on my MacBook for months.

You can find the "Model Identifier" (something like "Mac Pro 1,1") in System Profiler.]]> http://db.tidbits.com/article/10947?rss#comments_2691 Tue, 26 Jan 2010 07:59:22 PST http://db.tidbits.com/article/10947#comments_2691
How then, do I determine if my Mac Pro fits into such a category -- nothing in System Profiler seems to help...]]>
