Microsoft revealed today that it will not support EFI booting for Windows Vista on its launch. The news will be a shock for owners of Intel Macs who had hoped they would be able to dual-boot between Windows Vista and OS X. Intel Macs only support booting via EFI.

Because EFI is a fix to the aging old BIOS.
The only reason why OEMs do not have EFI is because MS has not bothered to write an OS loader to use it.
Becides, Apple really wins out of this, all they have to do is release a utility or firmware update for EFI to support BIOS the BIOS compatiblity layer that it currently has dissabled.
