Buying windows XP for my Macbook Pro just to game

I'm buying windows XP for my Macbook Pro and I'm looking for the cheapest version of it. This is what I found:

Anybody know if this will work alright?

You can get SP3 for $5 more at Newegg.com... Free shipping to...

LoL I just noticed the dimensions for the box on Amazon... "88.2 x 64.6 x 22.4 inches" that is one big ass box...

Wow...that is a big box. I hope they just messed that up. I'm not a system builder but that shouldn't matter right? Is this just a slim downed Windows XP?

It just means it is an OEM disc... instead of a retail box with all of the books and user manuals, it is just a sleeve and the disc...

Works just fine for me.

Bootcamp FTW.

does mac not have something like Wine?

It says in the amazon description it's intended for system builders only. Does that matter?

I am telling you, just go for the Windows 7 RC it's completely free for like a year and runs great!!

Product Description

I don't know what any of that means. Anyone want to explain that to me, like I'm a 5 year old.
