I don't get it. If my boot drive is wiped clean, what are the hardware barriers that explain the differences that you point to?
EDIT: Not sure why I'm downvoted for asking this. Can anyone advise as to what hardware issues would make a 2010 Macbook Pro more difficult to install Windows on?
- sid0 15y agoThe EFI firmware with "legacy" BIOS support that Apple uses. It doesn't help that Windows actually supports booting from UEFI but not the EFI 1.1 hack that Apple uses.
- sunchild 15y agoThanks for pointing me to that. I wasn't able to determine the real-world impact of the limited BIOS support. Anyway, I use Windows for exactly one thing: accessing (horrible) web apps that require IE. My original point was that the installation process is a mess from the perspective of a licensed user – Apple hardware or not.
