Seems like the code has been cracked. I don’t think anyone can argue that this video isn’t valid. We will get you the instructions on how to do it ASAP.

    Yaay! First poster! WELLL….this is okay, but i can see a long list of instructions coming.

  2. maijc says:

    great, is this put in a g4 ibook?, yes i know the answer, is no because the intel and the ppc are diferents architecture…. damn

  3. @Chris says:

    Someone else mentioned this but why not a decent shot video and/or pictures for these type of things. I think it’s legit but you could get sea sick watching…

  4. jv says:

    Seems legitimate enough — what I’m curious about, then, is how well are Windows apps running?

  5. James says:

    But why….?

  6. Nic A. says:

    After XP is installed, how do you boot back into OS X?

    Is it dual bootable or just choose an os and your stuck with it?

    Makes no sense to buy a mac to fun XP if you cant run OSX as well.

    Im curious because i have a MacBook Pro, and would be cool to show off that i can run XP when idiots say it was a waste of money.

    even though i have no use for XP.

  7. Marc says:

    Why? That question has been answered a zillion times.. :/

  8. Mitko says:

    is there a way i can install iMac on my normal pc? if this is possible then i will great you :D :D

  9. Dan says:

    There have been many documented ways to install OSX on a PC – Just use our search tool.

  10. Ryan says:

    yes this is being run on the new x86 Intel processor iMac, and one of the rules of the contest was that OS X still had to be on there and easily accessible. But who knows if this actually qualifies to win the contest…

  11. PhiL says:

    Hmm…..this could be fake:
    1) a PC running a video signal into the iMac, or
    2) the user is running Virtual PC full screen mode or boot mode

    OR
    this could be real, If it is, does anyone realise the potential for Apple? no more buying P-O-S pc’s, get a mac and if you hate mac os x, use XP on it….

    @Phil: I don’t think Virtual PC works on the Intel Macs
