Apple's newly refreshed MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook jeremy scott Pro models no longer support running Windows 7 with Boot Camp, according to Apple's Boot Camp support document . Boot Camp on the new notebooks only works with Windows 8 or later, so it is impossible to use Boot Camp to install Windows 7 on the machines. jeremy scott For those unfamiliar with Boot Camp, it is Apple's software designed to allow Mac users to install Microsoft Windows on their machines. Apple also dropped Windows 7 Boot Camp support in the 2013 Mac Pro, suggesting the software jeremy scott would cease to be supported by future Macs, but Macs released in 2014 continued to offer Windows 7 installations. The 2014 MacBook Air and the 2014 MacBook jeremy scott Pro will be the last Apple notebooks that support Windows 7. Though Boot Camp no longer supports Windows 7, the operating system can continue jeremy scott to be used on these newer machines with virtualization jeremy scott software like VMware Fusion and Parallels . It is not surprising that Apple has opted to phase out support for Windows 7, given its advanced age. Windows 7 first became available to the public in 2009 and was followed by Windows 8 in 2012. Despite being six years old, Windows 7 continues to be the most heavily used Windows-based operating system. Mac users were not happy with Apple's decision to cease Windows 7 support in the Mac Pro, and it's likely the dropped support in the new MacBook Air and MacBook Pro will also be met with resistance. Windows users have not yet embraced Windows jeremy scott 8 due to both its cost and its interface, which deviated significantly from the design of Windows 7. Windows 10 , coming later this year, may encourage stalwart Windows 7 users to upgrade, as it melds Windows 7 design elements with Windows jeremy scott 8 design elements for a happy medium that might satisfy a wide range of tastes. Windows 10 pricing has not been unveiled, but it will be a free upgrade for Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 users. (Thanks, Daniel!)

I don't think anyone uses Bootcamp with a legal copy of Windows. #Bootcampgate Speak for yourself. It's also not just individuals that use Boot Camp. My company has dozens of Macs deployed in dual-boot configurations. Boot Camp and virtualization have gone a long way towards making Macs acceptable in traditionally Windows-only workplaces. Our IT department basically has the policy that you can request a Mac,but it has to have the ability to run Windows for some active directory stuff. So they're either all dual boot or they ship with a Windows VM, depending on the use cases.
Windows 10 pricing has not been unveiled, but it will be a free upgrade for Windows 8.1 users. It will be a free upgrade for Windows 7 and up.
Come on Mac Rumors, you should know that's not how Bootcamp works. You don't need Bootcamp to install Windows on a Mac, Bootcamp is just a partitioning utility and driver set. Unless Apple is blocking Windows 7 on a firmware level it should install just fine, however you won't be getting official driver support, which could be a huge issue with the new trackpad.
