$6000 to first person to dual boot XP/OS X on new Intel-Macs!

Here's the article.
Surely one of our resident hardware gurus can get this done, right? Seems easy at first, but apparently the new firmware architecture (EFI) is giving people pause. (Myself included...I have a lot more reading to do.)

If I had a new Mac to play with I'd have a crack.

There was an article a few days ago on /. about how several people bricked their Macs (permanently) trying to install XP.

Ha! Well hopefully they can get it by their third try or so to recoup the cost of their new bricks!

Well it will be hard. Since its weird type of bios they use on intel macs, Which stops windows being installed. Change the bios you can install windows but not mac os

Yeah, xp doesn't support the new intel bios type thing. Vista will though.
