Boot Camp Compatibility
Since Boot Camp 1.2, the remote has had some functionality when a user is running Windows. If the user has iTunes installed on the Windows partition, pressing the Menu button on the remote will load the program. In addition to interfacing with iTunes, the remote's media controls also support Windows Media Player, as well as system volume control. Other third party programs may also utilise the remote's capabilities; media applications such a foobar2000 and Media Player Classic allow users to control their functions via the remote. However, applications have to have focus for the remote to control them. Boot Camp 4, the latest version of the software, also includes drivers for the remote control.

Famous quotes containing the words boot and/or camp:
“The best quality tea must have creases like the leathern boot of Tartar horsemen, curl like the dewlap of a mighty bullock, unfold like a mist rising out of a ravine, gleam like a lake touched by a zephyr, and be wet and soft like a fine earth newly swept by rain.”
—Lu Yu (d. 804)
“If all would lead their lives in love like me,
Then bloody swords and armor should not be;
No drum nor trumpet peaceful sleeps should move,
Unless alarm came from the camp of love.”
—Thomas Campion (1567–1620)
