Windows XP disc with SP2

Needed to load onto my mac - needs to be the authentic disc but I do not need the serial number.

If anyone has one can they bring it to the meet next week?

ps - you will get it back

will you be using boot camp or paralells?

primarily boot camp but I would load parallels as soon as got it partitioned and working

let me know how you get on, i used parallels went it first came out worked ok obviously had limited support for anything, i am aware it has come on leaps and bounds since then

VMware Fusion is supposed to be better than parallels - i may give that a bash.

It does for it to load on an intel mac using BootCamp. Not only that it needs to be an authentic non OEM disc. Fussy gitty thing. Almost had it loaded today but my serial number wont work ... grrr
