Am I misunderstanding Fusion as I thought that Fusion would access my XP partition and run XP that was installed there. &nbsp;Is that not correct? &nbsp;<br />
<br />
I will contact CompUSA about the OEM. &nbsp;<br />

I am waiting for my new iMac to arrive (switching over from Dell to a Mac with this purchase). &nbsp;I plan on installing XP via Boot Camp on the system when it arrives. &nbsp;The hitch is that I do not have a licensed version of XP at this time (my other copy is installed on my old desktop which will be used by my kids in the future). &nbsp;I have been looking online for full versions of XP Home (don't really need pro). &nbsp;I can get a full version of XP Home SP2 for $199 via Dell, but I also found on CompUSA.com a copy of XP Home OEM SP2. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
I assume this is a legal version to purchase and should also install correctly via BootCamp (and Fusion). &nbsp;<br />

Thanks

Mac OS X is the desktop operating system from Apple Inc., found on Macintosh computers. OS X consists of a Mach/BSD-based kernel, operating system interfaces primarily based on FreeBSD and additional frameworks (written in C, C++ and Objective-C providing user interface and application-level services.

Mac OS X

Apple's early computers ran on a variety of operating systems, including a Pascal version and one based on CP/M, before releasing its ProDOS with the advent of its 16-bit computer. With the release of the Lisa, which had its own OS, Apple and computing entered the graphical age; it was followed by the Macintosh, which offered a series of "System" operating systems. Other Mac operating systems included PowerPC until Apple acquired NeXT and folded it into the Mac OS. Current operating systems for Apple devices are Mac OS-X and iOS.
