“Was Apple evil for making software for that hardware, which was intrinsically incompatible with being run on a PC?”

No, they were not - for that.

For destroying the cloners? Yes.

You demand that Apple sell its OS on terms which they do not choose to meet.

They insist on terms which give them more credit for their initiative in identifying and implementing useful functionality than you are willing to grant.

So install Linux on your PC - what's the big deal?

“You demand that Apple sell its OS on terms which they do not choose to meet.”

They sell their OS retail. The idea that a EULA - which can have ANYTHING in it - is considered enforceable as a contract and defense of copyright - is offensive to the very nature of copyrights. I demand that software be treated like any other tool.

“So install Linux on your PC - what’s the big deal?”

I have no interest in Psystar’s products. OS X is of little interest to me. Of course, eye candy and limitations aren’t something I’m willing to pay a premium for.
