Some more information regarding PsyStar and its Opencomputer have surfaced, that try to dispel some of the doubts surrounding the company. Last week, the company posted a video online that supposedly showed the inside of the company, as wel as a bunch of OpenComputers running Mac OS X, Ubuntu, and Windows XP. In addition, a Gizmodo reader has sent a video to Gizmodo where he shows off his OpenComputer.

But it's not competing on price; it's competing on features.
If the Psystar had exactly equal specification, and every feature of a real Mac - but was still cheaper then it would be competing on price.
But it's not. It's not an iMac, nor a MacPro. Where's the webcam (iMac)? It's slower. OPTIONAL firewire. Integrated graphics on base configuration. No bluetooth, no mouse or keyboard.
Is it a Mac Mini? No bluetooth, no IR, the size doesn't even compare (the most important thing about the Mac Mini)
This isn't competing at all. It's just 'cheap'.
