While I do agree that Apple 'expiring' the beta was a bad move, the big
difference now is that they officially support it. If there's a problem
(with BootCamp, not Windows, of course), Apple's tech support is now
required to help. Likewise, when problems are found and reported, it's a
lot more likely that Apple's going to go and fix them now.
Of course, what a lot of people don't realize is that, with a little
searching, you can find the BootCamp files taken out of Leopard ;)
