The legal battle between Macintosh clone maker PsyStar and Apple is still being waged, but it appears that the two companies are going to do what some of us had already predicted: settle the whole thing out of court.

Uh, no - congratulations on completely missing the point, though.
Competition is great - it's Apple who is unwilling (or unable) to release an OS that competes on an even footing with... well, just about every other modern OS in existence.
Even Sun isn't that restrictive these days - and they actually sell industrial strength hardware / software (instead of just pricing it that way).
Yeahhhh, no. What I'm saying is that Apple wants the advantages of using off-the-shelf commodity hardware, but they also want the same protections from competition they had on PPC.
Sorry, but they don't get to have their cake and eat it too - if they can't handle competition, they should go back to the sheltered little walled-garden they had in the PPC days. Please, Apple: leave the serious hardware to serious OSes.
Yep, that's the Apple zealot party-line alright. Took you a while, though.
Exactly what I would expect from an Apple zealot - if someone dares to poke a whole in your comfortable little RDF bubble, you can always just dismiss them as a troll.
