[News] Apple Mac Challenged by OpenMac

Psystar to Fight Apple OS X EULA

,----[ Quote ]
| Psystar recently unveiled a $399 Mac Clone called the OpenMac, which has 
| similar internal hardware as Apple's $2000 Mac Pro. The kicker is that the 
| Psystar computer runs on the Mac OS X. Psystar is now in clear violation of 
| Apple's EULA, which prohibits running the operating system on any piece of 
| hardware without that little Apple logo.    
| 
| Now Psystar has come out of the gates swinging as it plans on fighting 
| Apple's EULA by slinging around some antitrust law violations. One Psystar 
| employee even said that Apple grossly overcharges for its hardware, stating 
| the computers have a markup of 80 percent.

,----[ Quote ]
| As recently reported on Slashdot, Apple, in its infinite wisdom, has added a 
| checksum to the iPod database apparently to restrict non-iTunes products 
| (like Amarok via libgpod) from having the ability to add music.
