Yeah a bootdisk will work if that is what you are asking? If you mean like a live cd then no I doubt it. Why? The Os would have to be designed to boot its self from the CD drive. If you want Windows on a Mac then try Macs bootcamp setup they have.

There is a new Apple computer out that you can run Windows on. It does have an Intel chip, but I don't know for sure if it is possible to install Windows on all Macs with Intel chips.
My only question would be, why do you want to install a mediocre operating system on a computer you had to pay a lot more for?

best way to find out is to try it, if it doesnt work, format the disk and reinstall old

Why not use Bootcamp?
