Windows XP working on an Intel Mac

[rusty charly]

A contest to see who could get Windows XP working first on an Intel Mac has been won, according to the contest’s coordinator, Colin Nederkoorn. The Windows XP on an Intel Mac page provides a link to a download that includes software and instructions for use.

Nederkoorn first put the contest together after he ordered an Intel-based MacBook Pro for work.

“I told my boss that this would replace my IBM desktop and I could boot Windows XP on it,” he said, and to put his money where his mouth was, he put up $100. He suggested that others with an interest in seeing a dual-boot Macintosh do the same.
