i was just about to ask this same question. I wanted to know if bootcamp worked so that you can format a single HDD as GUID partition table. Run OSX, XP and ubuntu all from the same drive(different partitions)? is that possible without boot camp? I know its possible if the drive is fromatted as MRB..but not GUID table format.

In example... if Bootcamp is working you can run your real Windows partition inside a virtualization sofware like Parallels or Fusion, and this is very nice and usefull!!!

From what i understand, windows xp won't run on guid. Vista will but only if your computer has a proper EFI... ie. not emulated. But since you can't buy pc motherboards with efi yet (i think) it's a bit useless at the mo. If you want to run them all from the same drive mbr is your only option.

True bootcamp eg. being able to change startup disk via the control panel etc doesn't work, but then that's what your bootloaders/bios for
