Guys i want to know one thing that can i run Windows XP/Vista/7 on Macbook/pro/air. please tell me so then i will go forward to buy this
Can i run WinOS on Apple macbooks
- Thread starter nUM47
- Start date
Although at first i thought that it was possible but as i digged into this , came to know it MIGHT just proved to be problematic..
Just after reading some sites on net came up with this link
http://blogs.msdn.com/volkerw/archive/2009/01/19/installing-windows-7-on-a-macbook-air.aspx
http://www.betanews.com/article/XP-Wont-Run-on-Intel-MacBook-iMac/1137003330
And some people here are showing off their win7 on macbooks
So in short what i suggest is that if you buy it then you have to go with MACOS which is not that bad as what you think.Secondly if you are buying just for show off (as what most mac users do ) then go on with it
Else i would still say if you want to stick to Win OS then look no where then the current available lappies in the marker from Dell,HP,Sony,Acer,Asus,Toshiba etc..
Hope you got my point

yaara it's simple. apple have their own monoply against microsoft and they won't just give away their stuff so people can use microsoft product on them lolz! btw when you are paying a considerable amount for mac osx then y do you need to change it? y not go for sony vaio if 'shashka' is what you desire
IF the slim is what you want then why not get the Sony new laptop

Now you have to compromise on specs , beauty and OS compatibilty

Necrokiller:
Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming. -
SolitarySoldier:
if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff. -
SolitarySoldier:
Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol
-
SolitarySoldier:
"These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is
-
XPremiuM:
Microsoft deserves all the hate they can get. Seriously i can't explain how much i want to curse them out. -
XPremiuM:
They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.
-
XPremiuM:
What's the f*** is wrong with them? I mean really? Have they completely lost it? F***ing retards.
-
XPremiuM:
So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.
-
XPremiuM:
Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
