I dream of the day I could run Windows 7 through bootcamp fully optimized on a Macbook, but that will never happen.

My friend just returned his Macbook Pro with Retina, because in Windows he could only get 2 hours of battery life. Apparently the discrete GPU runs 100% full time in Windows. He get sweaty palms using it.

I have no preference for either OS, but most of the work I need to do is under Windows. And whether you like to admit it or not, it is still a Windows world out there and will remain so for some time. In terms of making a living, it seems only artists (photo editors, musicians, etc.) can survive using only OS X, and there are not that many artists.
