Windows 7 iMac 2006 32bit
Hi all,
Can I (via Boot Camp), install Windows 7 Home Premium on an iMac 20 inch? (early 2006)
Thereafter I also want to install MS Office 2010 Home and Student edition. Wind XP SP3 cannot install MS Office 2010

According to Apple support in South Africa, I can install Win 7, however, according to the following I can't.
