Mac~2~windowz

[chemicalex]

hello
I bought a lap top today for 50 bux, it looks very new and the battery is new and every thing but i got a thing wrong.
It is MAC and i am not used to mac and how mac works, all my CD's are pc and i cant run pc CD's on mac.
in any way i was wondering:
1. is it possible to install windows on the computer?
2. if no, is it prossible to buy new mother board for it?

Thanks for your time

theres a program called virtual pc. its a windows emulator so you will need to install windows on it.

As elmarcorulz said, here isnt really a way to unisntall MAC OS and install Windows on top, you would have to use Virtual PC to emulate the WIndows OS

would it still work the same just like a normal windows computer tho?

yes and no... Don't expect much performance out of it...

its very sluggish and hasnt got all the functionality of an actual windows machine. It will run the windows OS inside a new window in the mac OS so it looks a bit wierd aswell

wow 50 bux.. u can give me that and i can give u one of my older desktop pc.. it'll be much easier.. fair trade off? hahaha just kidding.. well, yups.. go with virtual pc.. its pretty nifty considering pc can only emulate the look of mac [dont hold me to it]
