rEFIt for Mac

User Reviews

• Works Great!

  Pros

  Best open source software available; lets you choose between your operating systems on startup [on Intel-based Macs].

  Cons

  You have to reboot at least twice before it starts working; not a big deal though!

  Summary

  Just like the description says, as soon as you turn on your Intel-based Mac you can choose to start up into whichever operating systems you have on your computer [doesn't install Windows or Linux for you, it's not that kind of program].

• Great App!

  FarmPilotJuly 9, 2011

  Pros

  Small Footprint Gives user a selection of available OS's to boot from without booting into Mac OS first. No need to hold down any keys.

  Cons

  Sometimes you have to reboot twice after install, to see the OS List

  Summary

  Overall, this is a great "value-added" app to a Mac with multiple Operating systems (i.e. Windows 7/8, Unix variants). Best of all the boot menu apps!<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Jul 9, 2011<p/>By "booting twice" I meant to say, that occasional (on some machines), after install is completed you may have to reboot twice to see the list...However, that will be the ONLY time one would have to do so.
