A few OEMs are selling standard Macintosh models with Windows XP already loaded via Boot Camp, but Apple says it has no intention of doing the same.

I still can't shake that weird tingle when I see a Mac running XP. It's so weird! That said, Apple is not going to sell a computer pre-loaded with Windows; that is a given. What Apple should do is support any OEMs that want to pre-load Windows. Apple computers are the only machines in the world that run Mac OSX, Linux, and Windows XP at full speed and without hacking. That is a feature to brag about!
