Mac Clone Psystar Slams Steve Jobs

Miami based Psystar announced a Mac clone dubbed the OpenMac (now called Open Computer and Open Pro) this week and with a price tag a quarter of the price you’d pay for a real Mac, it wasn’t long before the Internet was buzzing with news.

The first bump in the road came when the Apple legal team discovered the fact that the OpenMac machine came bundled with Mac OS X 10.5 (aka Leopard). The EULA for Leopard states that the licence allows you to install, use and run one copy of the OS on a single Apple-labelled computer, operative words being Apple-labelled. In light of all these we decided we should cut to the chase and call Psystar ourselves.
