Re: Apples values.
As soon as I heard about this, first thing I thought was, Microsoft paid Apple to insure Windows 7 doesn't run on the new Macbook and MBP. But there's another solution. If you must have 7, buy a re-conditioned Windows Laptop that can run 7 and call it a day. You'll have a dedicated Windows 7 machine and dedicated Macbook. It doesn't really get you off Windows 7 or stop you from running it, but if you must have that new Macbook, not being able to run Windows 7 on it, won't stop you from getting it.
