Psystar is blocked from declaring bankruptcy again because of the shenanigans they played last spring in trying to delay the California trial by declaring bankruptcy then... and then withdrawing the bankruptcy when the judge ruled the suit had to continue to determine their liability in the bankruptcy... so unless the bankruptcy judge relents...
If you want on or off the Mac Ping List, Freepmail me.
I remember when I first heard of them and considered one of their machines. But husband and I both had doubts and thought they would be challenged by Apple and lose. They sure did have, at the time, very attractively priced machines compared to Apple.
A few months back out of curiosity, I spec’d out a Psystar to match the specs of a Mac Mini. The result was the Psystar box was more money. At the time I wondered who would buy from them; how can they be selling? I guess the answer is they weren’t selling.
The math just doesn’t add up - even if 100% of the proceeds were dedicated to the legal battle, they wouldn’t cover them. So how have they purchased components, copies of the OS, paid for advertising, etc.?
Something stinks badly.
Since opening their doors, Psystar sold a mere 768 Mac Clones at prices between $550 and $1500 retail... Obviously that was not all profit, so where did they get the money to live on, much less fight the lawsuit? Who are the mystery backers? Who has the deep pockets?Gotta be Bernie Madoff. No? George Soros then. ;')
