Boot Camp 1.1.1 Released

Thursday September 14, 2006 7:24 pm PDT by Arnold Kim
Apple has posted a new version of Boot Camp. The following improvements are listed but are similar to the updates from Boot Camp 1.1:
Support for the latest Intel-based Macintosh computers
Easier partitioning using presets for popular sizes
Ability to install Windows XP on any internal disk
Support for built-in iSight cameras
Support for built-in microphones
Right-click when pressing the right-hand Apple key on Apple keyboards
Improved Apple keyboard support including Delete, PrintScreen, NumLock, and ScrollLock keys

Boot Camp allows Intel-Mac owners to boot Windows XP on their Macs. The software remains in "Beta" form until its final release with Leopard Mac OS X 10.5.

Anyone try the express card with boot camp? I imagine that slot has a standard driver.

Wow, glad to hear that they are moving this along fast.

it keeps getting better and better. can't wait to get it running. wont be hurrying as most everything i need is mac. except some games.

Would be nice to let Windows and Mac run at same time on same machine for later versions
