I rebooted my MacBook Air and I got a message that came up on the screen that said "No bootable device – insert boot disk and press any key". It took about a half hour to create the install and write it to USB. The Bootcamp assistant created my install disk. Requirements for Bootcamp are as follows: a Windows 7 ISO file, and an 8 gigabyte USB stick (I used a USB 3.0 version). The next step is to start the Bootcamp assistant from finder bar at the top of the screen, click over to the Go tab, scroll down to the Utilities, then click on Bootcamp Assistant. The first step is to gather your Windows installation media this has to be in the form of an ISO image and can be obtained from Microsoft. It's a multi-boot utility included with Apple Inc.'s OS X that assists users in installing Microsoft Windows operating systems on Intel-based Macintosh computers. I am going to talk about my experience running Windows natively on a Macbook. The rest of this post won't focus on virtualization, but if you are interested in either of these products go to their websites to learn more about them. One is VMware Fusion version 7.1 and the other is Parallels Desktop version 10 for Mac. There are two leading products at this point in time. This is where Windows is run in a virtual machine on top of OS X. The first way is through the use of virtualization software. There are a few ways to run Windows programs on a MacBook Air.
There are many others but these are what I use on a regular basis. Omnipeek from Wildpackets, and Ekahau Site Survey from Ekahau. Airmagnet Wifi Analyzer and Survey Pro from Fluke. For instance, you have Wi-Spy, Chanalyzer and EYE PA from Metageek. If you're a WiFi geek like me you realize that most of the industry standard wireless tools run on Windows. Windows runs a lot better on Apple hardware than it ever did on other manufacturers equipment. So you have looked around and found out that the best Windows laptop for wireless work is a MacBook Air.
