Windows Drivers for Mac Rolling Out

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the only-a-matter-of-time dept.

OSXpert writes "Sure, we all know that Windows can now run on intel Apple Computers. Alas, the solution does not include drivers, and until now Mac users could still only hope to be able to use every application available to their Windows counterparts. However, with drivers now working 100% on the Mac Mini and drivers for the MacBook Pro only lacking video (which, by the looks of the 2nd link is only days away), Mac users now have a complete and working Windows solution."

    You're aware that you're supposed to pay for your Windows license if you want to run Windows from within a Virtual PC or a VMWare station right?

  6. More software! by lancejjj · · Score: 3, Funny

    Good deal! There are thousands and thousands of software products that are only available on Windows, and now I can run them on my Mac!

    For instance, Norton AntiVirus for Windows, Adware Destroyer Plus, and so many other titles only work well under Windows.
