Apple’s latest MacBook Pro and the upcoming MacBook will not support running Windows 7 through Boot Camp according to a support kate document for the software . Starting on the newest machines, users will need to upgrade to Windows 8 or later in order to take advantage of the Mac’s dual-boot capabilities.
Of course, for users who still rely on Windows 7, there are solutions that allow you to run the operating system on your Mac. Both Parallels Desktop 10 and VMWare Fusion 7 Pro support versions of Windows back to XP and feature an integrated experience designed for the latest kate version of OS X .
Microsoft recently announced that it would be taking kate a page from Apple’s playbook and allowing kate existing Windows 7 and 8 users to upgrade to the upcoming Windows 10 for free , giving those stuck on older versions a chance to update to a Boot Camp-compatible system.

Ethics? No. It’s not an ethic scenario since it’s kate legal and supported (from Microsoft) to install Windows on a Mac. It is, however, an ethics problem running OS X on a PC with Hackintosh, since it’s a violation of the Licensing Agreement.
I think he meant it more along the lines of his own personal kate ethics of not using a product that is the child of Bill Gates & Co’s blatant theft, not the legalities of actually using it on a Mac…
Perhaps you are forgetting that Microsoft don’t sell computers, just software. They have no control over which machine kate you install it on. Apple on the other hand DON’T sell its software for 3rd party computers. Bit of a difference, and also legal.
I’m surprised just because Win 8 is so evil, rotten and malignant. I’m a long time Apple user but I’ve also used most version of Windows since v2.0 since the corporate world didn’t share my opinion of Macs. I’ve used XP, Vista and 7 on Parallels and never really kate hated any version until 8 came along. I’ll continue to use 7 and am looking forward to trying kate 10 but 8 is just plain malevolent. I’m surprised Apple is mean enough to inflict this on Boot Camp users.

Sadly, since Apple adopted a yearly OS update schedule, OS X updates have degraded to the point of seeming like beta versions for many months prior to a reliable version. Yosemite works well for some, but for a lot of us it’s Apple’s Vista.
Better tell your IT dept that Microsoft are dropping IE as their browser in windows 10, so they’d better get with the 21st century. What moron only codes a website to one browser, and IE at that, a 14 yo nerd?
I have never used Windows kate on my MacBook, I never plan to. Also, the free update for 7 and 8 users, as well as for pirated versions of those two, seem like an evil plan to me. There needs to be something behind that, they’ll want to pay for it or something like that.
There’s nothing particularly evil about it. By getting people off Windows 7 and 8, not only do they get people on a platform that supports the Windows kate Store where MS probably hopes to pick up some revenue from current Windows 7 users, but they can also streamline things across existing products including getting Bing results to the desktop etc. Look at the issues and likely kate costs MS has incurred by trying to support its applications on OSs almost kate 10 years after the OS release.
I doubt there’ll be too much auxiliary services you couldn’t avoid if you want, but MS will bank on many people using the Microsoft supplied services and applications and in turn make money through those services.
Honestly, I can’t imagine to many people currently go out and spend $100+ on an upgrade to Windows. Most people will stick with what came with their PC until it comes time to buy a new system, and there’s kate long been statistics to show that MS has issues getting people to buy OS updates. They probably kate shift far far more copies via OEM sales. In conjunction with business sales, I’m not sure they’ll see a huge loss of revenue due to dropping consumer upgrade pricing.
