Operating System for the Mac

[GoneFishing]

With the beta release of bootcamp, Mac users can now run both windows and mac on their MBP.

I just have two quick ones.

1) I was wondering if bootcamp will work for Windows Vista, that is already released to manufactures, and will have a retail release around Feb 2007.
Answer: Yes it can run it.

2) I heard the new Mac OS will come with bootcamp. Do you konw when the new Mac OS will come out?
Answer: No offical release date by Apple. First half of 2007.



Edit: Updated answers for future reference if anyone needs it.
