Howdy,
I am wanting to get my feet wet with the Windows 7 x64 RC before I need to start supporting it. Has anyone run the RC on their MacBook Pro with bootcamp?
Also, Have you pulled the bootcamp partition into VMWare Fusion?
Thank you,
Keith

I've pulled my BootCamp partition into VMWare Fusions with no issues what so ever, but you do need.
With the F keys and the BootCamp icon that is usually in the task bar isn't there, however I suspect.

Just bought a 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo iMac with 2GB of memory and a 320GB hard drive. I plan on doing some .net development on it using a BootCamp/VMWare combo since VMWare grants access to the bootcamp partition.
What is a recommended size for a BootCamp...

Why? It's a lot easier to have a really large virtual disk which is not using it all where as BootCamp will take the space.
Recommend BootCamp unless you want to play games on it.

Bootcamp is for actually using Windows as a native Operating system on your Mac and has nothing to do.
I am a little confused here - When you use VMWare Fusion, you should not be using Bootcamp at all.

Is it possible to install Windows 7 (64 bit) on a Mac Pro without Bootcamp. I don't need Mac OS at all and just want to install Windows 7.
EDIT: Yes, it seems possible (see answer) but I would strongly recommend to follow deddebme's advice on this matter...

Upgrade to the latest version and it will support.
As mentioned on apple website, windows 7 is still not fully supported by bootcamp for the moment, Airport and Wi-Fi

The Macbook pro unibody has two graphic cores: the 9600 and the 9400. When running OS X you can choose which core you want to use.
How do you disable the 9600 and use the 9400 instead on Windows (bootcamp) ?

Virtualised XP is great!
Note Parallels also allows integration with Bootcamp , and it may be possible though seems.
A second copy of the bootcamp item appears in the selector menu, this is harmless.
