I'm looking to install Windows on my MBP for the sole reason of playing some games that aren't mac compatible.
I've seen people on public transport using it (they seem to be able to choose Mac OSX or Windows 7 on login). Just wondering what the easiest way to do this is?
I'm quite computer illiterate so a morons guide would be great.
Cheers,
Dom

they were probably using bootcamp - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT14…
I have used both Parallels and VMWare Fusion, to run windows and Mac OSX without restarting, though not sure how that would effect game performance.

I'm running Windows 7 on my MacPro with Bootcamp, and it runs like a champ. VMWare to quickly access the IE browsers for testing, but games run like crap. Restart holding down the Option key brings up an option for which OS to boot into.
Here's a setup guide. It's really quite easy to get up and running.
