WM 7 won't release until 2009 and the most interesting new (read: not already on the iPhone) feature seems to be that you can doodle on the lock screen. Can't wait.

Krakow: Running Windows on a Mac - Tech News & Reviews - MSNBC.com
"What you really need to know is if you’re in the market for a new Apple computer you should put the new iMac on your short list. Same if you’re looking for a new PC." One of the biggest wins from BootCamp is going to be that PC writers are seriously
