Mac OS X Whenever we talk about Mac clone makers such as Psystar, we all more or less accept as a fact that Apple is selling copies of its Mac OS X operating system at a price lower than it would have been if Apple did not have a hardware business. Even though we treat this statement as fact - recently, I've been wondering: where is the proof?

Part of the problem with Windows is that the hardware manufacturers write the drivers. With the crap drivers & software Dell installs on their machines, OS X would not be a pleasant experience on those machines.

Apple's engineers write the drivers for their systems, it adds to their costs, but also is part of the stability which most here apparently want.
