Hi Again, Simon. I've had Edge on my Android phone for a couple months now. I like it--more than I expected I would. It's a bit funky about typing in a URI, as opposed to searching via Bing, but it seems to do very well on the various pages I've tried. Sometimes it does better than Chrome Canary

Strange that bootcamp needs one to create a bootable stick, given how long that process takes. It's quite common to install from an iso file, which bootcamp uses to create the USB stick. So, why can't it just install from the iso image like is so common in multiple environments, including with

You might want to blank the drive first--no telling what little trivia might be lurking there. In any case that's what I'd do. Drop into the Terminal and do: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/[drive] where [drive] is the correct designation as shown under /dev. Be careful you use the correct one! This
