Gutsy/foolhardy Mac clone maker Psystar responded in August to Apple's copyright infringement lawsuit with an anti-trust lawsuit against Apple. Earlier this week, Apple's lawyers filed a motion to have the suit dismissed, calling it "deeply flawed." In its statement, Apple contends: "One of the bedrock principles of antitrust law is that a manufacturer's unilateral decision concerning how to distribute its product and with whom it will deal cannot violate the Sherman Act."

"Are you suggesting that Pystar doesn't have a business license? Ridiculous."
No, that was in response to the painting and selling car analogy posted by someone else. Psystar definitely has a business license.
We can all armchair this and say what we think should happen. The fact is we need to wait and see what the court does decide. Only the court can decide if Psystar did indeed violate copyright or not with the evidence given. The whole anti-trust thing by Psystar is absurd, as there is plenty of competition in the market place for PC's, which Apple has always been. PC stands for Personal Computer, of which Apple has been one for years whether they used Intel or not. The Commodore was a PC, the Amiga was a PC, etc.

And even if so, that would be a dispute between Pystar and the state regulatory agency; Apple would not be involved.
