There is no such thing as a legal 'free' copy of Windows ! Every legal copy has to be bought - either direct from Microsoft, from a computer retailer or be supplied with a new computer (in which case the cost of the OS is included in the price of the hard-ware).

How did apple make windows available on macbook air and MacBook Pro?

Apple made Windows available on MacBook Air and MacBook Pro by using Apple’s Boot Camp software. Boot Camp is a utility included with OS X that allows users to partition their hard drives and install a separate operating system. This allows users to dual-boot between Mac OS X and Windows. Boot Camp supports Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8. When users launch Boot Camp, the software creates a partition on the hard drive, copies the Windows installation files onto the partition, and then restarts the computer into the Windows installation process. Once the installation is complete, users can select between Mac OS X and Windows when they boot the computer. To get a copy of Windows, users can either purchase a retail copy of the operating system or purchase an OEM version from a third-party vendor, such as Microprokey. com OEM versions are cheaper and are tailored for the specific hardware of the MacBook Air and Pro. Once users have a copy of Windows, they can use Boot Camp to install it on the Mac.
