Is it possible to do PXE boot or network boot with an Intel Mac?

I don't think anyone has a working method yet of booting it using PXE because of the EFI issue.

That's true. There was a couple posts about Mac Mini on the Pluto forum (for example, this - http://plutohome.com/support/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=307). One guy post there a link to an interesting software - http://www.argontechnology.com/products.aspx?id=22. At the first view it looks like appropriate solution to boot Mac Mini via PXE.
