Bootcamp allows you to run Windows on your Mac on a separate partition of your hard drive, you choose which OS you want to work in on powerup. I used the Beta and it worked very well, but I think there are better alternatives around now.
As for AntiVirus I've been a mac user for a decade and never ran any. Never had a virus or worm. This said, with apples current popularity rise it probably won't be long before you'll want some peace of mind.
