I was assured a few days ago that bootcamp turns a mac into a windows machine just by choosing Windows at boot:
http://www.gearslutz.com/board/10275668-post2.html Iv'e been wondering for a while as I would like a mac mini,the most affordable way to delve into appledom,however I'm positive there would be issues with drivers and such,and I'm sure it's possible Windows would have trouble with thunderbolt [depending very much on how you would want to use it,like trying to run a UAD satelilte for ex.?]
I do have a coolerrmaster silencio cased desktop[sig.] i7 2600k,but I find myself still using my [very quickly dying at barely 3 y.o.]dell xps 2011 laptop a lot more,but I do not want or trust a lot of the current Win laptops,esp. with the 80% markup in price we aussies are supposed to pay here compared to the same[though usually with inferior or lower rated cpu's @ more $]hardware,as you fortunate folks in the US.

Edit: It's very odd actually,somethings are almost similar in price-high volume goods mostly,but not always,anyway a macmini i7 2.3GHz before ANY options in your country is $850 AUD,over here it's $999 AUD which is better than it was,but that is only 4GB RAM,again before ANY real world options are chosen.
