Does anyone have any experience with running windows 7 64 bit on a macbook pro 13 inch (the higher spec model)

If so how well does it run?

EDIT: Should have mentioned plan to run it using boot camp

What do you mean by "any" experience...

Yes it runs fine on a macbook pro 13", yes it runs better than vista, yes there are some driver issues that apple should fix, yes games can run on win7 on MBP, though not on high details. Yes it get freaking hot when playing games.

Well that is my "any" experience.

I am running Windows 7 Ultimate on my "Low End" 13" MBP, and it runs great! I am running it via Bootcamp, as well as using Parallels 4.0 to access my Bootcamp partition while running Snow Leopard. No Complaints!

Are you running 32-bit or 64-bit?
