We already had the news about Psystar's Rebel EFI possibly including open source code, but now we have another story which doesn't really seem to bode well for the small Florida clone maker. Gizmodo has a story on an interesting customer experience.

Well, they'd at least need to develop a nicer interface than the CLI for most of their customers, I'd imagine. I don't know if lshw is available, but there are several other ways to get a system's entire specification in OS X. Build this into Rebel EFI with an option to send to Psystar or save the output, and that's all they'd need. Sometimes I wonder if Psystar is deliberately trying to look shady, or if they've just got more financial backing than common sense.
