 Apprehensive once but satisfied now September 26, 2007

After a couple of false starts, I rescued my venerable Toshiba laptop (5205 S503) from servitude as a doorstop. Windows XP Home installed flawlessly using "quick mode." Thanks to Tiger Direct for prompt efficient service.

Choose the quick load and it is simple. Be sure you have a high speed connection because there lots of updates for this version. There isn't any manuals or documentation, but if you can load a disk and choose the quick load there no problems. If you're familiar with XP this is a great low cost option.
Windows XP Home Edition Review November 10, 2007

I purchased this product for installing on a laptop. Did well with everything installing all drivers except for the video driver. Could not get it to even install video as standard VGA. With some work, was able to download drivers off the net. XP Home works great now, no glitches. I have Vista on 2 other systems & does not compare to XP Home. Vista still has many glitches & hogs resources. XP Home keeps resource consumption to a minimum, thus allowing for faster & more stable applications.

This is a good alternative if you don't need the documentation or support that you get with the normal ($199) version. I bought this and installed it on my macbook pro, works fine, just like any windows operating system...Nothing special.
 IMac Owners Beware February 21, 2008

I bought this product to run Windows on my IMac after reading reviews from MacBook owners (my video camera didn't have a Mac driver so I had to get Windows to import video). Unfortunately it is an upgrade and is not able to run on new IMacs (with Leopard OS X). The software is supposed to be unreturnable, so it would have been an expensive lesson in trying to save money if the people at the distribution company hadn't been reasonable folks.
If you want to run XP on your IMac, you should go ahead and buy the full 32 bit home version with Service Pack 2, twice as expensive, but it's the cheapest version that will actually work with Leopard.
