Mac OS X on x86 Videos Get Apple's Attention

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the almost-getting-away-with-it dept.

RetrogradeMotion writes "The OSx86 Project is reporting that Apple has served a legal notice to MacBidouille, a French news site that posted videos and instructions on running Mac OS X on x86 hardware . You can find an English translation of the MacBidouille notice on the OSx86Project's forums. This is the first known legal action by Apple regarding the hacked version of OS X and calls into doubt the future of other news sites, similar to the OSx86 Project." Slashdot previously covered the story of hacking Mac OS X onto non-Apple hardware and followed up again a few days later.

    President Bush used to be content to revel in his own ignorance. Now he wants to share it with America's schoolchildren.

    According to their IRC channel (#OSx86 on irc.r-type.ca), they are back up but going very slow. Slashdot effect at it's lowest.. can't we do better? :D

  3. Flag-burning by Wolfier · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Recently the US passed an amendment that allows ban on flag-burning.

    Does it mean displaying a video of a burning flag is illegal?  We're facing the same issue on this topic.
