Default Question, is it possible to dual boot WIn & MAC?

I know MAC comuters can run windows, and with the right hardware you can install MAC on a Win pc. So could you have Win XP on computer and MAC Leopard and have dual boot ? Just wonfdering.

If you have an Apple computer you can use bootcamp to dual boot.

If you do not have an Apple computer it is illegal to run OSX on it.

There is also the Parallel Desktop program you can purchase to run a Windows OS on top of your Mac OS.

As stated it is illegal. As such this topic is not allowed as per Rule #5 of the site.
