XP is still around. Poke around the (reputable) online vendors, and you'll find it. And yes, for running it on an Intel mac, you'll either need Bootcamp, or Parallels. Bootcamp will let you boot the machine into either OS X or Windows. Parallels lets you run a "virtual" windows machine while booted into OS X. > I know she will need to get an AV program etc. I'll sugesst AGV i > think it is, the free one. Folks here seem to like it. For Windows XP, AVG anti-virus. For OS X, nothing really necessary at this point in time. > Barb has the macbook laptop. Not sure of speed HD etc but its only 6 > months old if that.
