General Information
Boot Camp is software included with
OS X so you can run compatible versions of Microsoft Windows on an
Intel-based Mac. You can run the Windows operating system on
your Mac at native speed-without the performance penalty that comes
with software emulation or "virtual machines."
Windows applications have full access
to multiple processors and multiple cores, accelerated 3D graphics,
and high-speed ports and networking such as:
- USB
- FireWire
- Wi-Fi
- AirPort
- Gigabit Ethernet
- Drivers for Audio & Bluetooth Functionality
If you're using
Mac OS X v10.5 or Mac OS X v10.6, the
Boot Camp support software is on the Mac OS X
installation DVD. For OS X Lion v10.7 or later Windows drivers
are automatically downloaded from Boot Camp Assistant.
