The prize for creating a method to boot Windows XP on an Intel-based Mac has been won. Contest organizer Colin Nederkoorn announced on his website this morning that the total prize money of $13,854 will be awarded to two California men he referred to as ?narf? and ?blanka? and added that he has tested the open-source booting method and says it works. Although Nederkoorn had slight reservations about the validity of the technique earlier this week, he?s now convinced.
Nederkoorn told Gizmodo, ?Drivers are still a problem, but the basic work is done. We now have a fantastic base for an open-source EFI boot loader for the Intel Mac.? A thread on osx86project.org has confirmations from several testers that the procedure works on the 17? iMac, the Mac mini, and the MacBook Pro aswell. Many sets of pictures and videos (such as this installation video) are floating around.
The EFI-compatible Windows XP boot loader for Intel Macs is now available for download.
