Read Apple's Contest FAQ. Basically, a group of people may enter the 
contest together, as long as (1) all members of the group are eligible, 
(2) the group collectively is responsible for the Mac OS code, and 
(3) the group chooses a single person who will receive the prize.
Finding a way to share a Cinema Display is not Apple's problem :-)

This still doesn't solve XDarwin's problem - I'm an Apple employee, and 
therefore not eligible, so any eligible group would not cover all of the 
Mac-specific code in XDarwin. I guess I'll just have to vote for Fink :-)
