dayglored, you were saying to dennisw ...

Dennis, Apple tolerates individual Hackintoshers, always has and always will.

And I think that's fine for individuals to experiment on their own machines/computers. If they like to do it and they want to fiddle with the code and twist their machine around in circles (LOL...), I would not begrudge them the fun of doing that.

But, the fact of the matter is that the vast majority of the consumer public doesn't want something you have to hack and fiddle with, but simply something that works and works insanely great... :-)

Also, Apple knows that a big corporation is not going to come inside someone's home and tell them what do to on their computer themselves (as in hacking your own machine). That would be stupid.

But, when someone turns that into a business and starts making money off what Apple has done (or any other corporation has done with their own copyrighted material and/or patents, licenses, plus riding on their trademarks) -- then they're gonna hear from Apple and their lawyers -- and rightfully so.

That's why you got to Psystar or a Psystar clone. To buy a clone of a Psytar clone of a Mac
