That sign was probably put there by some unhappy CompUSA employee. This is an urban legend. Thanks, Brian (and everyone else who responded). This makes me really curious. The sign surprised me because at one time CompUSA was recommending Bootcamp. So I asked the service manager guy and he said, and I quote, "It's third-party software so it voids your warranty". So I asked him, "Then how do you run Windows on a Mac?" He said, "With a double boot system." Didn't make sense to me and still doesn't. Isn't Windows third party software on a Mac? As for myself, I use XP on a Gateway and Vista on an Acer laptop so it really doesn't matter, but something is wrong with that picture. -- Phil Swango 307 Aliso Dr SE Albuquerque, NM 87108 505-262-4085
