What is the world coming to?
Hackers have managed to get Microsoft's Windows XP operating system running on an Apple Mac computer.
The success ends a competition started to see if the feat was even possible when Apple unveiled computers that used Intel chips.
The pair who managed the feat won $13,854 (£7,895) in prize money for their trouble.
The software used to put Windows on the Mac is now being circulated so others can try to replicate the success.
