Windows on my Mac Book Pro

Thread Starter 
I remember when I got my MacBookPro 15 about a year ago, I was told it comes with windows already loaded in it & that I'd have to turn it off & start it in windows or something like that.
If I wanted to switch back & forth I'd need something like bootcamp.

Anyways I wanna play a game I downloaded, but it will only play on windows...

Can anyone tell me how to switch it over so I can try the game?

Is that something I need to buy?
Or is it already in my LapTop?

Just download it. All you need is a Windows licence.

Not if you bought it from Apple. If you bought it from someone else then it may have, now whether it was legal or you have the license for it is something else.

Mr Jobs does not want to pack Windows with OS X, it would be too expensive
