Can I use Windows XP in Bootcamp 3/Snow Leopard?

I have a 27" iMac (I believe it's still the most surrent—bought it late June 2011.

Parallels and VMWare Fusion have been a pain. Can I use XP or do I have to upgrade and buy a newer version of Windows: Vista or 7?

Thanks. Read the support article, figured that's what it would say. However, just for the heck of it, I tried installing XP and it worked. Had trouble getting my printer driver for the one program I need to use Windows for (a client has a Windows-only program I need to use) but I fianlly got that done too.


When I go back to Lion (had MAJOR problems running my Adobe CS5 suite) or Mt. Lion, I know I'll have to upgrade then.


Until then, I'm good.
