Macs can run Windows

According to Macrumors, the contest is over - someone has earned $13,854 for their solution, which had the following requirements:

2. Windows must be able to coexist with Mac OS X and each system may not interfere with the operation of the other (basically a traditional dual boot system where one OS is running at a time)
3. Your method, upon starting the computer, must offer the user to boot either OS X or Windows XP (hint: GRUB / LILO)
7. You cannot use virtualization software such as Xen or VMWare

Screenshots of the boot selector are fairly impressive, as they look attractive enough to be usable by the unternerd.

Just squeaked under the deadline, which was next week.
