Well, I guess my remarks about "There's not going to be Apple warranty or support" lasted about 3 weeks.

I guess I could remain technically correct because it's not as if Apple is supporting Windows (says so right on the Boot Camp page), but obviously they have developed their own software to support the Windows booting, so there won't be any hardware warranty issues and such.

Hey, whatever works. I personally would only find dual boot useful in a select few instances (which don't exist for me right now). If someone gives me virtualization, though, as I mentioned above (ability to put Windows on the box and then run Windows apps *without* rebooting), then I'll be impressed and somewhat more interested. I still don't have an immediate use for it, but it would mean that I could fire up the occasional Windows app without rebooting, and I could see that being much more useful.
