Jim,
My sources tell me that Vista runs fine under Boot Camp. It's just
not officially certified yet. Since Boot Camp is a true dual-boot
solution, you would be running Vista natively, so there shouldn't be
any trouble.
Reportedly, Parallels Desktop now supports Vista officially. I found
a good mini-review here:

I don't think we'll have to worry about Vista support on Apple
hardware going forward.
Regards,
Devin

It sounds like Vista will be too demanding to be used on a Mac in a
virtual
environ. Since authorization is required for any install, it seems
like the
future will be that we are forced to use pirated copies since MS
will want
to force the upgrade to Vista.
One of my goals in my two businesses is to use the Parallels
solution, but
this may have a short life expectancy.
Am I off-base in my thinking, and should just not worry about XP
disappearing in the next couple years?
