From macrumors forum:

Why isn't OS X tied to EFI?
Doesn't this mean that OS X is booting on machines with plain old ordinary BIOS? The Macintels are using EFI; I'll admit that I'm kind of stupid when it comes to this stuff, but how is it that OSX86 doesn't require EFI to boot?


Sure seems odd that no one has got windows to boot on Mac because of EFI. Wouldn't OSX *require* EFI to boot.

I await confirmation. Maybe this guy is just stirring things up.
