Star Psystar Asks Judge to Rule Its Business Is Legitimate
Linked by Thom Holwerda on Tue 3rd Nov 2009 10:13 UTC
Law and Order While the Apple v. Psystar case is currently on hold until the hearing regarding the motions for a summary judgement takes place (November 12) the Psystar v. Apple case (still with me?) is only just beginning. Psystar has amended its original complaint in this second lawsuit, asking the judge to order Apple to cease calling Psystar's business "illegal", claiming it hurts the clone maker financially.

Some of you might see this as "sticking it to the man" but Apple has billions in the bank and could shrug off selling the OS at retail. Or they could clamp down and only provide updates for supported hardware. If this happened all the people that bought Psystar boxes would be stuck with frozen systems. They would be hurt by the whole thing far more than Apple.


And among those Psystar customers, who do you think most of their anger would be directed at? Answering that questions also goes a large towards answering the question of "so why doesn't Apple do that?"

They're at least smart enough to know they would be cutting off their nose to spite their face.
