Psystar Selling Mac Clone
Psystar is offering $399 for a Mac Clone called OpenMac. On their website they are calling it “The Smart Alternative to an Apple”. The clone will run Leopard unmodified on the intel-based OpenMac.
From Psystar website, “Why spend $1999 to get the least expensive Apple computer with a decent video card when you can pay less than a fourth of that for an equivalent sleek and small form-factor desktop with the same hardware. Sometimes reinventing the wheel is a good thing. The Open Computer can work for new Mac users and Mac geniuses, alike”.
Currently the website is working but the link to OpenMac is going up and down. Apple lawyers have got to them?
