    My computer always boots to Windows automaticly and I'd rather not have to hold down the option key everytime I want to go to OSX, since I use it more. So I'm wondering how to do that?

    I am doing this memory, in the Control Panel in Windows there should be a startup disk icon now. Double click it and you should be able to choose the default startup there.

    That's correct.

    You can also use the same Startup disk control panel in the Mac OS X system preferences to change it to boot from OS X by default as well.
