Im' currently running on the latest version of tiger! And wanting to upgrade to leopard!

This is where I need your help, basically I want to know whether I can pull my hard drive out an stick a nice big fat one in then load leopard up on it an then run that boot camp thing and have windows xp running to???

I know windows is horrible but I need it for my job!

Will this work?

Thank for your time

Welcome to EIC!

The following link can guide you on how to replace your hard drive. You can indeed get a larger model. Just make sure the drive is compatible with the Macbook specs.

With adequate hard drive space, you will indeed be able to run bootcamp and Leopard.

Have you considered getting a USB or firewire external hard drive? They come in a variety of flavors and keep you from having to do what you are thinking. You can't use an external drive as your Windows partition but you can certainly clear out the contents of your internal drive.
