Eddie:
You know, now that I read this, I recall that Montague escaped from
the still-broken vanishing cabinet apparated himself out? (True he
nearly died and ended up lodged in a toilet.)

Seems you CAN apparate inside Hogwarts after all?

James:

I don't think we can take this as proof that you can actually apperate
within Hogwarts. Remember that we are told that when stuck in the cabinet he
seemed to alternate between being closest to B&B's and to Hogwarts. It seems
likely that the cabinet while broken was essentially moving him far enough
away from Hogwarts to get away from the magic that prevents apperation.  I
don't recall canon saying that the toilet in question was inside Hogwarts,
so the origin and destination of the attempted apperation need not break the
rules.
