Virtual Box or Boot Camp and What Flavor of Windows?

Is computer hardware integration (Apple's out-of-the-box computer hardware, especially the new laptop track pads, iSight, etc.) less of an issue with any of these? I assume Boot Camp works the best?

Regarding Boot Camp, the only issue I had was right clicking on my MBP - easily solved with a 2 button mouse and there's likely a work around using the track pad that I'm unaware of. Since I use the MBP with the lid down, external monitor, KB and mouse I don't have much experience dealing with trackpad issues. Oh, and since I use a M$ keyboard, booting requires holding the Alt key rather than the Windows (Option) key. Bluetooth is a bit funky too, but I believe that's a bluetooth / Windows thing rather than a Boot Camp thing. I use a plain wireless MS KB and mouse. Also, at one point I had to go through some Windows hoops to see my 30" monitor after I made some big change to the Windows environment. It was a minor PITA but thought I'd mention it.
