    Psystar Sells T-Shirts Now, Seriously, T-Shirts

    Remember Psystar, the hackintosh company that stood up to Apple (and lost)? While they can't sell you a PC running OS X anymore, they will sell you this $15 t-shirt. Oh how the mighty have fallen. [Psystar Thanks MacJedi!]

    I feel like a broken record writing about these guys week after week, but they just won't go away. Even after this week's ruling that Psystar must cease operations, their attorney is saying the company will be back. More »

    Psystar Is Crazy in Every Way

    Psystar's recent legal woes keep proving the company's insanity. New documents show that these guys planned to sell at least 1.45 million Mac clones by 2011. How many did they actually sell in the past year? 768. More »

    Psystar Sobers Up, Lawyers Up, Prepares to Die Go to Court

    Oh, thank god, we almost went a whole month without hearing from everyone's favorite EULA-flaunters: Psystar is back, again, and ready to fight, again, except this time with real-sounding lawyers, and without the outward appearance of insanity. More »

    Psystar Files for Bankruptcy

    Psystar—those guys who were pilfering software from the Hackintosh project to run Mac OS X in blah PC hardware—has filed for Chapter 11. Good riddance, is all I can say. Although this may be a shady legal strategy on their part. More »

    PearC Opens Up A European Front in The Hackintosh War With More OS X Clones

    As evidenced by Apple's legal troubles in Europe, our friends across the Atlantic don't see the whole "antitrust" and "license agreement" thing like us Amer'cuns. Thus, PearC: the Hackintosh cloner that just might survive. More »
