Well said Crimson, well said.

I too use both operating systems, i just happen to use them on the MacBook Pro. Dual booting wasn't developed by Microsoft, it's a part of the BIOS on your motherboard which detects hard drive partitions and if those have startup files on them. If so it lists the name of the operating system these files are a part of and goes from there. Bootcamp was developed because all of the systems made by Apple had their primary hard drive fully partitioned to its file system. Bootcamp shrunk this to separate partitions easily and whilst the operating system was still running. This made space to install windows onto (which it done aswell).

I am the system administrator of 28 macs consisting of 8 eMacs and 20 iMacs in school and it's been pretty easy to use and understand.

The college i go to just got their Mac network setup consisting of 12 Intel iMacs, an xSan, an xServe and two xRAID's (alongside 20 windows PC's) which i am currently administrating and it's really easier to use than any of the windows equivalents. This whilst being a student there is great experience for me, and i can take this into my career as another thing i can do.

If you want to get a career in computing, of any kind, it's best to know your way around their operating systems, and since i'm going to media, everyone uses Mac's (since that's what they're good at) and i'll already have a head start with the operating system they use.

But yeah, don't talk about things you don't know about (in a nice way).
