Bootcamp

You just never know what they will do next. Apple has done the unthinkable - enabled Windows on an Intel Mac with a new product called Bootcamp. I’ve seen many different takes on this - some think it will grow the market, others think it will be the death of OS X. I think it will at least triple the market share for Macintosh computers. And if only 1/3 of those people stay in OS X, the market just got a lot bigger. I also think that Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard will take it to the next level. Think Windows apps running like X11 ones do.

    I think there will be more than just gaming as a use for Bootcamp. I think if you see X11 style integration, it will allow numerous legacy applications to be run. I think it would be fantastic if my wife were able to switch to a MacBook for her job and still run the company’s internal apps.
