slipstream Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Woohoo! Thanks everybody, finally posting wirelessly from my MBP 2.0! Had one hitch, every time I reboot, I have to hit G and Enter quickly at the text loader screen a few times to boot to Windows. Is G for "G"o ahead and boot? Once I figured that out, it was gravy. 1. This OS is a battery hog! I'll be lucky to get 1:45 out of a full charge. 2. Is there any way to make it sleep without locking up? i read somewhere that the fans dont kick in and if you are not careful it could overheat just keep an eye on how hot the thing is getting From memory there was a few apps that will give u a readout on PC's maybe it will work on the MBPro.. oh yeah maybe not as i think it gets it from the bios.. worth a try though Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/11731-xp-on-an-imac-up-and-booting-no-joke-this-time/page/15/#findComment-77978 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shunnabunich Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 you guys made the beebhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4816520.stm And apparently you've both been relegated to the status of dirty, low-down "hackers" for doing so, along with anyone else who tried. Pretty amazing, though!

Sidekick Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Well, hacker is not a derogatory term and besides, the article is inacurate since they released their names to the press.
