Bootcamp - second attempt

Boot Camp-1I am giving Apple's Bootcamp solution a second try. The main reason for the reinstall is that I want to compare the performance of Parallels Workstation VM against native Windows XP, as well as compare Bibble running on OS/X vs. Windows.

I noticed once again that my power management functions do not work under bootcamp -- the screen saver is never activated, the display never goes dark, the MacBook Pro never goes into sleep mode while running Windows. I wonder when a beta 2 of Bootcamp with updated Windows drivers will be available.

I should have the MacBook Pro performance tests done later on today.
