Hello all mac fans :)

I've had a couple of iBooks in the past and I do love a bit of Apple :)

I'm about (I hope) to get a new job where I'll have a lot of say over my choice of hardware, I'm going to be part of a big windows network so OSX would only be for playtime or non server time but I'd be in website building/sales so having an apple around to test new builds on would be useful.

So.. a macbook using bootcamp.. some questions

1) can I share files over the 2 OSes using a partitioned drive?
2) would all the network gear work as a windows machine in windows or would it matter?
3) any performance hit? it'd most likely be the 2.4ghz 13 inch with 2GB

anything else I need to consider before I try and sell this idea or should I just forget about it and go for a thinkpad/vaio?
 
do you mean yes or no for the performance hit? If its booting windows only wouldn't it only have to worry about 1 OS?

I used virtual pc on a G4 ibook and it was terrible.

It'd be a wired network connection most probably when I was in the office, wifi G isn't a problem.
