The simple answer is that there are a few apps I use without Mac
equivalents. Windows runs just as well on a Mac through bootcamp as it
does on a plain old PC that does not run the Mac OS.

If it's only a few apps, why bother with a dual-boot? Why not set up
Windows to run virtualized from within the Mac OS? VirtualBox, I believe
works with Mac OS X.

I have *1* Windows program that I still occasionally use. I run it from
a box, and never have to leave Linux. There's even a Windows Lite, that
has most of the BS stripped from it. Linux, or in your case, Mac OS,
controls the computer so you don't have to worry about running that
insecure, buggy POS called Windows. ;-)

If you are interested, I can point you to the needed documentations to
get you going.
