Apple Believes Someone Is Behind Psystar
rgraham writes "From the article on Growler: 'Apple apparently believes that somebody else is behind Psystar, which might help to explain why a major law firm would take on what seems like a fly-by-night's case; also why Psystar has been so bold in continuing to sell its products. I knew this thing felt funny. As Alice in Wonderland might put it, "It gets interestinger and interestinger."'"
It's me. shhh.
"From the article on Growler" ? Rob, you turned on spell check? That coudln't be!
Vista sales weren't very good, maybe Microsoft figured they could make more money selling macs.

That's right, Power Computing. They thought they could force their way back into the 3rd party Apple market. And they would have done it, too, if it weren't for those meddling Cupertino lawyers.

Personally, I prefer Awklaw and Sedlaw for most of my shell prompt legal needs.

Well of course. Here we are trying to have an uninformed discussion based on hearsay and speculation, and he has the outright audacity to bring facts into play!
It's downright un-American, I tell you.

Just don't break the seal and open it up the other way around. Have a toddler / pet kick up the keyboard until the I agree button is pressed, and there you go, no agreements between you and them.
My parrot is now very good at pressing the I agree button :)

Sounds eerily reminiscent of the end of *every bloody Scooby Doo episode* where the baddie turns out to be a supposedly amiable minor character who in reality was bitter about some business dealing and trying to subvert his former partner.
Sad thing is, I almost instantly visualised this in animated form, and I didn't even like Scooby Doo that much!
Woz would have got away with it if it hadn't been for those pesky.... um, lawyers.
