Actually, in my last install of XP home, I alloted 20 gb and the entire install plus all of the apps I needed only ended up using 3 gbs. -Take it for what it's worth.

15 seems a bit small to me because there is an 8 gb threshhold for safe

To start bootcamp, open the boot camp utility in apps/utilities. You can print out the uide while you are in the utility and then there is a buttton
that begins the install process.  from there, it's streightforward.

Subject: Starting Bootcamp


Well, I'm going to install Bootcamp today with sighted assistance.
The person helping me has never used a Mac.  So can anyone please tell
me how to start Bootcamp?  I'm assuming that the directions after that
will be pretty straight forward.  She has installed Windows XP before,
though as a recovery disk for my HP laptop, not just the basic os.  So
how long will this take and will she need to do alot of things this
time around?  Also, is 15 gb enough space?  I think it may be a little
too much, but I don't want my screenreader or web browser to run
slowly because I didn't give the thing enough space on the hd.

Thanks,
Tiffanitsa
