They will have the option to dual boot (Mountain Lion or Windows 7). I am looking for an intuitive way to inform how to boot to Windows. I was thinking of a desktop background once they log in to the Mac side, but that doesn't seem the friendliest or quickest (though logging in to the Mac is significantly faster compared to Windows). I really don't want to tape instructions to the physical computer either. > > Is is possible to tweak the login screen? > > My understanding is rEFIt is no longer supported. > > Thanks for any advice you might have! I don't have a solution but I admire your problem. ;-) A couple of things jump out to me however and I am keen to know how you solved this. How do you intend to keep these current. If I borrow the laptop and return it to the library. Is it your plan to manually login to these as the Mac OS admin and update and then (assuming Active Directory) push the updates to these? It seems like a lot of room for human error.
