We got more news from the CEO and leading engineer of the EFiX R&D Team.
The following mail was sent to us from Mr Wilhelm von Vnukov :

“It is already released, limited time and our devotion to the production itself caused
that web isn’t updated in the right way. On 23 of June, a server hardware malfunction
caused troubles, so we were not able to update the page on the right way.

Next week will have EFiX V2 (100 Pics of Limited Edition) available.
Mass production version V1 will start shipping about 3-4 weeks later.
Both versions cost 80 Euro right now.”

We want to be the first to test their solution and write a full report on the product.
We have a fund open to acquire this wonderful piece of software. It’s up to you guys.

Help us acquire and test the product before it is released to the public :

The goal to reach is only 80 EUR.
Thanks for you help.

This is really HUGE, no I mean HUUUGE !

Finally looks like someone smart has developed a solution for booting and installing Mac OS X on a PC using the original retail (unpatched!!) Mac OS X DVD. W00t is the word!

EFiX is a USB dongle that should allow you to run the orignal DVD on any PC. All you’ll have to do is put the DVD in your drive and start the installation. Isn’t it great.

They planned to release the hardware on 23rd of June, check them out: efi-x.com

Now you don’t have any excuses anymore! Go buy Mac OS X!

netkas got a version of the hardware to test it…
