The best part is that the Psystar guys were complete idiots about this. By pre-installing the software on the machine they violated the law.

If they were smart (and like dennis, they’re not) they would have sold it as something like the OpenComputer and advertised it as being able to run multiple operating systems including Mac OS X, but that it was unsupported. There wouldn’t have been a thing in the world Apple could have done then. The bundling and installing was the stupid part and what put the nail in their coffin.

Pretty much what Psystar does
Their computer is even called “Open”
I’m going to call Los Hermanos Psystar and see if they need any marketing help
