They have converters, which are pretty small, for monitor adaptation as I recall.

Yes, but for VGA you cannot go straight from mini DVI, you need two converters. That is not small!

When you set a mac up to run windows and apple is this a dual boot setup?
I got plenty of xp cds around.
If you use Bootcamp then it will be boot from Windows OR Mac; to switch you would need to reboot. If you use VM Fusion or Parallels, then Windows will run just like any other application in its own window within the Mac environment, and hence no need to reboot; and you can drag and drop between Windows and Mac areas.
