Update 2 :
I just talked to Apple and they said, if you have an older Mac computer you will have to install and run Virtual PC 7 but if you have a new Mac with the new Intel chip that you have to download a program called Boot Camp Public Beta which allows you to install Windows XP. You have to have the Windows XP cd or progam in order to download it on to your Mac.
