My mirrored DL said 1.0. I don't know what the official site says. Apparently project OSX86 has a good bunch of drivers for various things, but they are also traffic killed. I'll keep watching that site throughout and see if they pop back up.

I've seen some public torrents where it clearly says 0.1, just to confirm what I'm saying.

I don't know, I'd assume it would be a beta release in sheer sensibility of it, but I'm just saying what I see this file telling me.

http://forum.osx86project.org/index.php?showtopic=12185

Drivers for a lot of stuff.

Can I play Half-Life 2 on this thing?

Not yet. We haven't found a video driver that works yet, however it is fully possible for it to work, as once the system is booted everything is run through Windows, not the custom EFI loader. Once we find one, you'll be pleased, especially with the MacBook, as it has an extremely advanced GPU, supporting such things as HDR and 4x Anti-aliasing, along with a host of other features. You'll be the coolest dude at the LAN party.

Get used to it BFG, it's gonna be here for years to come. It's funny they list the "MacBook" without anything behind it but rumors about April 1... though very likely.

Mac Rumors is now hosting a discussion forum for Windows worth watching as the sheer mass of people:

http://forums.macrumors.com/forumdisplay.php?f=86

and OSx86project seems stable now.

The mini does have graphic driver support for the record, the X1600 is still pending. Supposedly narf will have to opensource it before much can be done with the X1600. I wonder what the hold up is.

The contest for drivers is going to start very soon. A winner before the horses even clear the gate?

I thought so.. Cause it seemed a bit weird that we didn't get to see a booting time and so on.

So Apple really does make faster computers, eh?

I bet the EFI modified loader may be fast than regular legacy BIOS.
