” Are you sure you’re on the right board... it’s the liberals who think that one can steal a company’s patents, copyrights, trademarks, and products — violate the law — and get away with it... LOL...

Let me try to find an appropriate liberal board for you... :-)”

They did no such thing. They provided a means to run purchased copies of Apple’s OS on non-Apple hardware. Perhaps you might be happier on a Jobs worship forum?

You were saying ...

Ummmm..., if you're talking about free enterprise and companies being wildly successful in our capitalistic economic system.... I think the right board is right here....

[it's definitely not the board for socialistic ideas of taking a company's ideas/products/etc and appropriating them for the "public good"... LOL...]

They did not. You misunderstood what was sold. One does not purchase a copy of OS X software. Apple does not sell the software. One purchases a LICENSE to run a specific version of OS X on an Apple branded computer under specific limited conditions, nothing more. Apple provides a copy of that version for you to install it on your Apple branded computer. You do not own that software; you own the limited license to operate the software. under that license.
