Boot Camp in Leopard has gone beyond beta and turns the MacBook Pro into excellent gaming hardware for the casual gamer.

Not so long ago when I first installed Boot Camp beta I was surprised to find out that my recent MacBook Pro Santa Rosa 2,2 Ghz was not that bad at all for playing recent 3D games. In fact, it was so good at it, that my productivity decreased dramatically for some weeks. Half Life 2 runs at very smooth 60 – 70 fps with most detail settings set to their maximum value (with Bootcamp beta).
