Boot Camp is a program that allows users of Intel-based Macintosh computers to run the Microsoft Windows XP operating system.

Boot Camp for Mac OS X Lion (10.7) supports Windows 7 Home Premium, Professional and Ultimate editions, 32-bit or 64-bit. Boot Camp for Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6) supports Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 2, Windows Vista Home Basic, Home Premium, Business or Ultimate, and Windows 7 Home Premium, Professional or Ultimate.
