Windows 7 (64 bit) + MacBook Pro + BootCamp 3.0 = Easy, Flawless, Hack-less

October 11th, 2009 jdhalbert No comments

Coming in the next day or two is a full review and guide regarding the installation of Windows 7 on a Mac.

Why is this unique? Long story short right here:

  • Being a student, I have access to the FINAL RELEASE (not beta) of Windows 7 Pro about a month early of its official release date — and FREE too, believe it or not =D
  • Being the lazy SOB that I am, I shot the shit for 2 weeks and just recently went ahead and installed it on my Mac.
  • It is the 64 bit Professional edition
  • It installed on my MacBook Pro (4,1) without the slightest hitch or hack, and upon installing Boot Camp 3.0 drivers off my newly purchased Snow Leopard (10.6) disk, runs absolutely flawlessly
  • Windows 7 does not suck
  • Windows 7 actually comes close to giving me a hard-on
    As if that’s not already WAY to much information, more to come when it’s not 4 in the morning and I’m not completely delusional.

Until then,

Sleep well. I will be.

Dropbox” is an online backup/synchronization service that gives you a folder to put anywhere on your computer, and in that folder you put things that you would like synchronized or backed up.  Very simple, very easy, zero maintenance. And best of all- FREE.

What does this have to do with my site? I don’t know… if you can think of something though, feel free to let me know. Hey! It’s my site, I can get off-topic if I want to!

Get Dropbox!
