Psystar Not Closing Up Shop

Despite several sources reporting that post-indefinite-injunction Psystar was closing their doors for good, the company's lawyer is claiming Psystar plans on going forward with PC sales — they just won't be pre-loaded with Apple's OS X. Psystar plans on selling systems pre-loaded with "other operating systems," including Windows, as well as selling their "Rebel EFI software" that allows consumers to load OS X on generic PCs.

Will apple try the same carp on iphone unlocks soon? jailbreaks?

Probably not a carp. They're not a very sexy fish. Apple would likely slap jailbreakers with a tuna or salmon.

I was going to post a witty insult possibly indicating that you have no social/sex life and attempt to gain status of your own importance by buying anything with a brand logo on it,
then I would question your sexuality/intellect in some snappy manner which is both hilarious and also manages to remain the safe side of the politically correct barrier, thus avoiding any down modding.
I would probably then make a few logical statements pointing out the inate error of your views before rounding up with either a killer blow meme or maybe a jab at how small your man hood is but to be perfectly honest, I can't be arsed, so I'll simply close by saying that you sir can eat a dick pavlova.
