And we have another Ask OSNews item! This one has to do with the recent article we ran on how I built my own Macintosh and installed a vanilla, unaltered copy of Mac OS X on it using the boot-132 method. One of our readers asked us: what is the best hardware to build a Mac out of?

Oh cry me a river why don't you. Nothing irritates me more than when the demand for fair compensation moves from being reasonable to simply just extortion. I some times wonder whether some of these people have their priorities right when their whole life is centred around chasing the almighty dollar; in the pursuit of the dollar they ignore the fact that everything around them is fake, it isn't real, constructs that have on inherent value and trinkets you amount during your lifetime cannot be taken to the grave with you.

Money is like anything else desirable: either you use it productively, or it can take over your life.
The first thing I would do if ever became filthy rich would be to stop flying coach. The second would be to ensure the financial security of my descendents.
You can't judge from afar whether the employees in question are making themselves miserable chasing dollars or have something productive in mind. But you can bet that Apple, Inc. is about making money, and that monopoly practices hurt the consumer.

Instead of telling that to the developers, tell it to the upper brass with their stock options, mega-buck pay and golden parachutes. All of which they keep even when the company is tanking.
Although, in light of the ongoing economic fiasco, this might ( possibly, maybe, hopefully) change.
I guess greed flows downhill.

But the DOJ is investigating Apple's hiring practices.
