Do the new macbooks support Intel wireless display technoloy called as Widi? Since Widi is as yet only compatible with windows 7/8.1, I am not referring to widi working on OS X Mavericks. However, since one can install windows 7/8.1 on mac easily using bootcamp, I would like to know whether widi would work then. To repharse my question, does Intel Widi work on a Macbook Pro with windows 7/8.1 installed on it.

Since the processors are capable, I assume Widi should work with the latest macs. Only question is whether the wireless card is supported or not? In addition, does Apple provide the necessary driver support and other requriements to get widi working.

Intel® Wireless Display for Home or Work. With Intel® Wireless Display, playing content wirelessly from your mobile device on your big-screen HDTV has never been easier. Use your second screen to multitask. Intel® WiDi delivers rich. Microsoft's Wireless Display app lets you wirelessly project your Windows or Android based devices to your Xbox One. Instantly share photos you've just taken with family and friends without having the photos sync through a cloud service.

As surprising as it may seem, I haven't found any answer to this question anywhere on the internet. Surprising how not many people are concerned about it. Of course there is Apple TV, but Widi and Airplay are quite not the same technologieis anyway.
