Some newer versions of Windows such as Vista SP1 and 7 have a EFI boot mode, but Microsoft's EFI boot code is not compatible with Apple's EFI. If you do need to update the firmware, you can wipe off OS X after it is updated. If you are installing Windows on an older Mac, you might need a temporary installation of OS X to update the EFI firmware to allow BIOS emulation which is needed to boot Windows. This does mean you will need an installation of OS X at least while you download the drivers and then burn them to disc or copy them to a USB drive. Since there is no longer any retail disc, Boot Camp drivers can be download in OS X by running the Boot Camp Assistant utility in Applications -> Utilities -> Boot Camp Assistant.

To have full hardware support, you will need a copy of OS X Leopard or preferably Snow Leopard since Snow Leopard has a newer version of the Boot Camp drivers and device software.

The Andy Android Emulator for PC and Mac emulates a full Android OS for mobile applications using VMware. Then in a turn of good fortune, I found Andy. I remember searching for visualization solutions, but came up empty. The Android release didn’t do me any good either as I didn’t have an Android based tablet. I remember anticipating the release of ScratchJr, and thought the planned IPad debut played into my good fortune. Then ScratchJr was released, and I realized that my first generation IPad was not supported because the OS was too old.
