5 of 5 Not as described, but great for a Mac Thursday, April 09, 2009
A Customer from West Hartford, CT
This software was actually OEM, without a box, and with Service Pack 3. However, the OEM, non-boxed version made the price reasonable from this trusted seller. The Service Pack 3 instead of Service Pack 2 helped with fewer updates to install.
I got this legitimate version of Windows XP to run on my Mac smoothly and use the power of the Mac for games, internet, and general use on the Windows operating system.
I would recommend this buy for all Mac users who want to have Windows on their Mac as well. XP is superior for Macs than Vista, I believe, and even though this product is in stripped-down packaging, not in the box as shown, and OEM, this is a full and legitimate version. Was this review helpful?
