Apple has responded to Psystar's new lawsuit today, stating that it is nothing but a stall tactic on Psystar's end. While I could just paraphrase whatever the filing reads, I decided to take this opportunity to address a number of sentiments and analogies often made in comment threads (not necessarily on OSNews).

"If they win, Dell and every other big computer maker will jump on the bandwagon killing their margins."
Ain't that good for competition ? About the margin moto, I bet that if Psystar can produce and sell lower amount of higher end computers with full priced legit copies of Mac OS X, all of this for a fraction of the price asked for the original computers issued from a large company like Apple, that "margin" is just astonishing, to say the least.
Of course Apple cannot cope to suffer its "margin" level being known (that's why they dropped some lawsuit points on Psystar) and they surely don't want their monopoly being brusted ! On a more sardonic note : if Apple computers "costs an eye or an arm", Psystar's costed Jobs a liver...
