Nah, really, the plug'n'play stuff is very tight these days. What doesn't 
come with XP drivers anyway? And you can do all the launch a specific app

Friend of mine thought the ads were also serving the function of 
discouraging people to stick windows on their intel macs, so it's more an ad 
for OSX rather than Macs in that sense.
