The website of a Miami-based networking and security solutions reseller became inaccessible Monday, shortly after the company began advertising
an unauthorized Mac clone for a fraction of the cost of Apple's cheapest system. Dubbed
OpenMac, the USD 400 offering from Psystar Corporation is described as 'a low-cost high-performance computing platform' based on the ongoing OSX86Project - a hacker-based initiative aimed at maintaining a version of the Mac OS X operating system for everyday PCs. The website is back online now, and the machine has been renamed to Open Computer.
Update: Psystar says they will continue to sell the Open Computer system, despite the fact that it appears to violate Apple's EULA.
"We're not breaking any laws," they insisted.
