    I am having a go on my friend's Macbook and I tried installing windows. Now I have two questions:

    1) How do you make it so that the Macbook automatically boots into OSX instead of windows? Right now, if I don't hold alt at startup, the notebook boots into XP

    2) Is there a way to enable tapping while using windows?

    1) Boot to OS X and go to System Preferences - Startup Disk, picking the OS X volume there should do it.

    2) "tapping"? Only thing I can think of would be something to do with the touchpad, and if that's the case then I do not know of any way of enabling it in Windows.
