Windows 7 on the MacBook

I’ve just installed Windows 7 on my MacBook’s BootCamp partition, and so far it looks great.  I’m not new to Win7, having had it installed in a Parallels VM since it was released.  The experience on the MacBook’s native hardware, though, is so much better.  For a start, it doesn’t die when you try to run (or create) a WPF application.  For a developer, that’s a pretty important thing. :)

One niggle, though, I can’t get audio.  I know there’s a fix, but after inserting my Leopard DVD, the drive has stopped responding.  Now I have to boot back into OS X in order to eject the disc.

Oh well, I’m going back to playing with this OS, and seeing what it can really do.
