Boot Camp Question
Hey guys, I had a quick question about boot camp. So I just bought my new Macbook the other day, and I want to put Windows XP on it so I can use the Office software I bought a year ago. I have an old HP laptop that I am using that contains the recovery CD...Can I use said recovery CD to install XP on my Mac?? Thanks guys!

Great, thanks for the info Emancipated! I should be able to get a free copy of Windows through my sister since she goes to Seneca, but she has to pay $80 to recover her login and password...booourns
