TheAge Reports: Apple says yes to Windows on Macs
“Shares in Apple Computer surged overnight after the computer maker unveiled software to help owners of its new Intel-based Macs run not only its own operating system but also Microsoft’s rival Windows XP system.
“Wall Street is betting the move will help Apple grow its current worldwide market share beyond the current range of 3 per cent to 4 per cent by attracting more business and home users.
It was reported in a previous article Hackers get Windows XP on Mac about the possibility now that they are using Intel chipsets. I believe that this will now give the confidence to studios who has staff that feel more efficient on Windows platforms to allow staff to run cool looking “winmacs”. I wonder if that name (previously an oxymoron) will take off. 
For those of you who are interested in giving this a try, Apple have released some software that will allow you to run windows and mac side by side.
