Comment Boot Camp Rocks... but they forgot a few things... (Score 1) 731

Boot Camp works great except Apple forgot some basic things...

1.) In XP the CTRL-Click function does not work. You have to install a third party util to run at startup that will enable right clicking using ctrl-click.

2.) Del key remapping... everything worked great until I joined my XP install to my company domain. The del key on macs is not the same as PCs. After joining a domain, you get the ctrl-alt-del prompt. This gets you nowhere. You need to use the windows server 2003 resource kit tool "remapkey" to map a real delete to the right apple key. I forgot to do this prior to joining the domain. The work around at that point is to scramble around and find a usb keyboard.

These items in my opinion should have been thought of by Apple as part of the Boot Camp driver install.
