Apple Boot Camp

Boot Camp is a utility that allows you to set up a dual-boot config between Mac OS X / Windows XP on yout Intel-based Mac. The functionality will apparantly be built into the next version of Mac OS X.

A few notes: First, from the day they announced the switch to Intel, they said they would do this, and they have. Second, I'm guessing this will drive a fair amount of Mac hardware sales over the coming years.

Third, and more personally, it won't solve my own workstation needs, since I need to be able to toggle between the two OSs without having to boot into one and then the other, etc. (Not to mention that I don't have an Intel-based Mac either).

Looks like a second PC with a KVM switch is going to be the only way to go.
