Boot Camp 1.2: Aero and Aqua in Perfect Harmony

Posted by Alex Galonsky on 03/29/07 in Apple, Applications, Utilities

Boot CampAn update to Apple’s Boot Camp software was issued today to OS X users. Boot Camp is a free partitioner and set of drivers that allows Mac users to run Windows as well as OS X on the same drive. Boot Camp was introduced early last year and is going to be a feature in Apple’s upcoming OS X 10.5 release, Leopard. Boot Camp 1.2 includes many fixes and features, making Windows on the Mac a bit easier.

In Boot Camp 1.2, Apple officially added Vista support, adding in Vista drivers and utilities to finally bridge the gap between Mac OS X and Windows Vista. Apple also added in Apple Remote support, allowing control of iTunes and Windows Media Player from your sofa, as well as Software Update. This, of course, all means that there’s no need for tutorials on how to install Vista drivers on OS X, as they are now compatible.

You can download Boot Camp 1.2 in Software Update or from Apple’s Boot Camp download page.

    Aero and “Quartz”? Aqua is a better Mac equivalent of Aero. :)
