Shawn's comment about space management and allocation made me wonder about Boot Camp. I have a new Macbook Pro and am toying with the idea of running the Boot Camp provided. However I am still a recovering Windows user. :) So I wake up in cold sweats imagining myself clicking on the icon and this tiny application suddenly bloating itself like a huge sponge and sucking up all of that nice, clean free space on my hard drive. Are my fears founded in any reality or does Boot Camp work as is without expanding (unpacking like unwelcome house guests and taking over)?
Thanks.
Paul
PS Just to show how much of a newbie I am, as if you couldn't guess, I used the demo version of PowerPoint for Mac and couldn't figure out how to save it for use in Windows or older versions (backward compatible). But when I loaded it on my Windows machine it...ummm..."just worked." I still can't figure out how that happened or if it was supposed to! :)
