Boot Camp is Apple's solution for installing and running Windows on Mac, allowing owners of Intel-based Macs to install and boot Windows XP alongside Mac OS X. Unlike virtualisation solutions (e.g. Parallels Desktop), Apple's solution requires users to reboot machines to switch from one operating system to another.
Boot Camp was originally released in 5th April 2006 , and the final version is expected in Mac OS X 10.5 "Leopard" due in the early 2007.
