    i have no idea, that you'd have to look up, and preferably before installing windows

    out of curiosity, when you install XP isnt there a screen where you can change partitions and all that? if you wanted to make your macbook completely windows, couldnt you just wipe the mac partition away, and reformat it as NTFS?

    There's hardware differences in the architecture, but my friend is running XP on his macbook, so it can be done.

    Take a look into bootcamp, and other boot loaders

    the hardware differences are for the most part resolved by the whole macs have intel now

    annnnnnnnnd as to older macs running windows, you usually are running it inside of a virtual machine, not as the primary os....
