dealcatcher.com— So I decided try out the new Apple Boot Camp Beta to dual boot Windows XP on my Imac. Everything went great then I got the oh so famous blue screen of death after 30 minutes of using Windows.

My XP box is stable, I would never have to reboot if there weren't updates every once in a while. I've had some pretty impressive uptimes with no problems. If you know how to use a windows OS, it can work fine. There are just millions of morons out there that use no virus protection and cause havoc. For every one Mac/*nix user that is a complete idiot, there are 10 on windows that willingly click that "PUNCH THE MONKEY AND GET $1,000,000" buttons. You write malware for the OS you are most likely to see, not some OS with a small market share.

Technically, they're using Windows... They're running Windows on Apple's hardware. In other words, it's still a PC.

It seems Apple didn't take pains over bug-free XP audio drivers.

Who would've thunk it - an iMac can even make TBSOD look good!
