Apple has released Boot Camp Public Beta 1.0.2 software (a “quiet” release on Monday as it is a beta product), which lets you inflict the Windows XP operating system upon your Intel-powered Mac.
Apple has released no information regarding the changes in this release.
MacFixIt theorizes that it may include revised versions of the Windows XP Mac drivers:
It is presumed that this update includes revised versions of the Windows XP Mac drivers, so you should burn a new drivers disk (using Boot Camp Assistant) after installing the Boot Camp update, then boot into Windows XP and re-install drivers… In-house we’ve noticed no discernible changes after applying the updated (1.0.2) Windows XP drivers on a MacBook Pro running Boot Camp.

Im am a Windows user from the beginning… the only reason why i got a MBPro was too see what this whole little Apple community was about… to be honest about the only thing the Mac OS does better is let you use two fingers to slide webpages around… here to hoping that Leopard will be a true revolution… although with Vista just around the corner im sure it will be overshadowed.
