Microsoft has just sent out another reminder to its dear customers that the end moment for support for Windows XP Service Pack 2 is looming, alongside other versions of the Windows operating system as well. Support for Windows XP SP2, Windows 2000 Server and Windows 2000 Client will officially end on July 13, 2010, and that reminder comes with a marketing twist as it reminds users to upgrade their systems to Windows 7, Windows Server 2003 or Windows Server 2008 by the stated cutoff duration. Bear in mind that upgrades directly from Windows 2000 to Windows 7 are not officially supported, meaning whether you fall under the Windows 2000 category, you will first need to compose the jump to Windows XP before migrating to Windows 7, leaving Bill Gates laughing all the way to the bank.

You’ll need to supply a copy of Microsoft Windows, but Boot Camp is included in Mac OS X Leopard. Setup is simple and straightforward — just as you’d expect with a Mac. 
that update addresses issues with the Apple trackpad and turns off the red digital audio port LED on laptop computers when it is not being used. It additionally includes support for the Apple Magic mouse and wireless keyboard. It is intended only for use with Microsoft Windows XP and Microsoft Windows Vista running on a Mac computer using Boot Camp.
 Requirements

Boot Camp 2.1 must be installed prior to running that update
For Windows Vista, Windows Vista Service Pack 2 must be installed before running that update.
