Apple comes with its own operating system called Mac OS 10. It is a lot better and easy to use than Windows. But if you like you can install Windows on a Macbook via Bootcamp. Bootcamp is a program that comes with all Macs with OS X 10.5 or OS X 10.6. Bootcamp will allow you to run Windows on an Apple, you can even run Windows and OS 10 side by side with a third party application called Parallel. To install Windows on a Mac you first have to open Finder>System>Utilities>Bootcamp Assistance. A new window will pop up and you will go through a quick setup of partitions and other stuff. Please note that Bootcamp will only take Windows XP, Vista, and 7 in 32 bit. Put the installation disc in and the Windows operating system will install. Once the installation is done you are going to have to install the drivers for your Macbook. Have Windows running and put the OS X installation disc into the DVD ROM. All the drivers will install automatically. Log off of Windows to return to OS X, then boot into Windows again and Windows will be fully functioning like on a normal PC.

I'm a little confused. Are you saying you want an Apple (Mac) computer, but you want Windows to be the operating system on it? And if so....why? Windows & Mac are 2 totally different things/operating systems. I've heard there's a way (software) to install a Windows OS on a Mac, and I assume that means you'd have 2 operating systems on 1 computer. Not exactly sure why anyone would want/need that, but I guess there's a reason. Also, be aware....if you get a Mac laptop that's either version 10.4 or 10.5, they don't support internet explorer AT ALL. You'd have to use Safari or Mozilla Firefox as your browser.
