And the Apple vs. Psystar case continues to roll onwards. A lot of mud is going back and forth between the two companies: Apple has accused Psystar of making information public which was under a protective order, and obviously, Psystar denied. In addition, Groklaw's Pamela Jones continues to suspect that this Psystar case is related to the SCO case, and is part of a concentrated effort to destroy the GPL.
Update: I've just been emailed (on behalf of Psystar's lawyers, actually) the outcome (in the form of a court order) of the hearing held this morning. Sadly, it's very late here, so I won't be able to analyse it properly until tomorrow.

I'm going easy on Pamela Jones of Groklaw because history has taught us that sometimes, conspiracy theories eventually turn out to be true even when they sounded outlandish or ridiculous at first! There are many parties in the tech industry who would like nothing better than see the GPL invalidated. While I don't think this has anything to do with the Apple v. Psystar case it's certainly understandable how Ms. Jones may believe such a thing.
On a related topic, I second the vote to see all future articles regarding the minutia of the Psystar case be moved to Page 2.
