Default RE: The "Flight Sim for Mac" Protest!


ORIGINAL: blw

A note for Mac users running Bootcamp Beta from MacNN- the expiration date for Bootcamp is Dec 31, 07. The current view from Apple is to upgrade to Leopard if you want to keep running Bootcamp. The obvious workaround is to reset your system date before running after the new year. I'm looking for any news of patches, etc for those who don't want to upgrade to Leopard.
My understanding is that Bootcamp, once installed under Tiger, has no 'expiration date'. But it is true that you will not (after 12/31/07) be able to download, install, and partition your Mac HD with it. So my recommendation to all fellow Intel Mac users who aren't ready to spring for Leopard just yet is to download and use BootCamp right away. You will still be able to boot into Windows after 12/31/07.
