tuaw.com reported Windows Vista RC2 doesn't work on Macs via Boot Camp.


I'm sure it'll work when Boot Camp becomes officially part of Mac OS X when 10.5 is released. Doesn't Vista already
work on the Parallels Desktop virtualisation tool anyway. And those that've been trying Vista RC2 on Boot Camp,
clearly haven't bothered to read Apple's information that says it currently only runs with Windows XP SP2!

From this HOW TO guide (HOW TO: Install Vista RC2 on an Intel Mac with Boot Camp), it looks rather easy.

I shall give it a try. (Although I only have Vista RC1.)
