I finally had enough little things that are not available for Mac so I decided to go to BootCamp and VMWare Fusion to be able to run Windows XP Pro SP2 either by booting into it or running a virtualization. The funniest part of the process for me was when I did the Windows Update after the install. Anyone want to take a guess as to how many updates there were?

87 “Critical” Updates. Did I mention that I purchased the Install CD three weeks ago?

So now to see how it really works out. I am definitely going to be doing some exploring and tweaks. Some things have me stumped such as how to access a thumb drive through VMWare Fusion.
