I'm excited to see a couple people arguing over my article. It looks
like a Mac vs PC thing. I do have to agree that it's an Apple problem
but not due to a flaw in the product assuming the product you're
talking about is the Mac Pro. The Mac Pro is a masterpiece in computer
engineering. It's a flaw within bootcamp and the bootcamp drivers for
the Mac Pro. Since the drivers come from the Leopard install disc,
bootcamp is the same across all platforms with the Leopard disc
containing drivers for all the systems' hardware. Luckily bootcamp
does go through updates so here's hoping for an eventual update but I
wouldn't count on it until Vista has a larger market share...whenever
that may be.

Thanks guys, this makes me want to keep on writing.
