Some refreshing thinking about Boot Camp

Apple JonathanMaybe I'm a little spoiled by using the best desktop management system possible, but today's big hoopla about Boot Camp seems a little misplaced. Sure, it's nice to be able to run Windows on your fancy Intel-based Mac, but how can Apple's official solution be nearly identical to the quick hack cobbled together by two amateur programmers? Maybe in the next version of OS X there will be WINE-style functionality, but for now Boot Camp scores a solid "eh" from me. Check out Khoi Vinh's much more elegant analysis. The photo for this post (an unreleased Apple Jonathan) came from Khoi's post.

Also, I would just die with laughter if tomorrow Microsoft did the exact same thing for Windows boxes. If Apple's stock rose $6 today on the news that it can load Windows, how far would it drop if any Windows box could run OS X?

  3. Meanwhile, Benson never played as aggressively again. In February 1980, the Bucks traded Kent Benson to Detroit for veteran center Bob Lanier to fill in the hole left by the departure of Jabbar. They then won the Midwest Division title in 1980. After losing to Seattle in the semi-finals, the Bucks moved to the Eastern Conference's Central Division.
