    Yes you can, you just need to use the program 'Bootcamp' (pre-installed in every Mac), and of course you also need an original copy of Windows.

  • You most certainly can. In some ways it is better tha OSX Mountain Lion. You need to install Bootcamp first, which you download from Apple free of charge. This creates a new partition on your disk drive called Bootcamp (C). This will be your Windows C disk on which you will install Windows. I recommend Windows 8 because it is superfast and excellent. I am running both W8Pro and Mountan Lion and they are both excellent. Windows makes a better job of text rendering than Mac does, but Mac is better for sound software, in my view. If you are using Macbook you have excellent text rendering.
