A hacker has managed to successfully install Windows XP on a new Intel Mac and has had it confirmed.

You can download the required files and instructions here.

The jackpot ended up at $13, 354 and has been awarded to the successful individual (who goes by the handle narf2006). The original context page can be found here.

There goes one of the last reasons I had not to buy a MacBook Pro…

Well that is really something. I wonder how long until a patch kills this? Then again if it sells more copies of Windows XP…

Both companies have expressed that they’re happy to have XP work on the Mac (if that’s true beyond just lip service who knows :) )
