from the article: "The bottom line, Psystar said, is that consumers have had to pay more for a computer running Mac OS X than they would have if Apple had not tied the operating system to its own hardware."

Can't be. Everyone knows that only Microsoft is a monopoly.

If Psystar hires Janet Reno to represent them there may be trouble.

Yeah, right. Apple hold a gun to my head and makes me use a Mac. What utter BS. When are we going to a UK system where such obvious idiot claims cause the whiner to pay up?

I’m not a lawyer, so don’t have detailed knowledge of relevant laws. But it seems to me there might be a case there. I think it’s a brilliant move to give it a shot.
I wonder if Apple wasn’t taken by surprise by this.

Yay! Apple’s stock price is gonna go through the roof! /sarc

How can a company with 10% of the sales, have a monopoly?
