Windows developers that are Mac fans, rejoice!

Yes my friends... we can finally run Windows on a new Mac, and it looks really easy...

I love the jabs they take. "Running Windows on a Mac is still running Windows." :)

The only problem is that MacBookPro costs 50% more than a Wintel laptop of the same quality

That's not true at all. I just spec'd a Dell with similar hardware as the 2 GHz Macbook and it's $2,400, which is a hundred dollars more than the academic pricing for the Macbook. At regular pricing it's about $100 less. In either case, the Dell doesn't even have the better video chipset available, so it's still not quite an Apple-to-apple comparison.

I just saw an Acer with almost the same quality as the hight-end mac that costs the same as the low-end mac
But in Italy the difference is greater, since Mac just have a 1% market, so maybe prices are a bit higher than standard.
