I bought XP Pro SP2 (OEM) last fall but never got around to installing it on my MacBook. I've decided to start with Boot Camp and try the alternatives later. Before I get started, are there any comments on the current state of Boot Camp? Does the latest version support all of the MacBook hardware under XP Pro (WiFi, BT, trackpad, core duo, etc)? Is there any prep work I should do beforehand (optimize/defrag?)

specs: this is a 2GHz Core Duo MacBook with 1GB RAM, 80GB HD (38GB free), latest firmware and OSX. The files have been backed up.

I have boot camp installed on a CD MB and a C2D MBP with no problems whatsoever... BT, trackpad, wifi, ethernet, and both processor cores are supported as well as most of the other apple hardware.
