It is possible to create a Windows XP Service Pack 2 install disk from a Windows XP SP1 or vanilla disk. This is particularly valuable if you have a Volume License, and can only obtain the original Windows XP install disk. This will allow you to install Windows in Boot Camp on your new shiny Intel Mac, purchased from Real World Technology Solutions, an Authorised Apple Reseller! To do this you need: A PC running Windows or Paralells A Windows XP Install CD A blank CD Nero Burning ROM or other similar Windows burning software (may be possible with Toast as well, but I haven't tried it). Instructions are here: http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/windowsxp_sp2_slipstream.asp
