Mac Laptops running XP

March 27, 2008 2:09 PM from

Hi! I've got a new macbook pro laptop running the intel chips, so I am able to boot windows xp on my mac laptop.

My question is this: I'm already going to buy the TA pre-order so I can try out the beta on my gaming PC, but would it be a good idea to install that beta on a mac running windows? I'm a little worried that that might do something bad to my computer.

What do you guys think?

It's fine, I'm running it that way now.

You are actually quite safe running any windows app you want. The very worst that can happen is that you completely corrupt your xp installation. All you have to do then is to boot into Mac OS, delete your XP partion and create a new one.
