Open Tech managed to make a few headlines by selling open-computers that can run OS X Leopard.

Literally, Psystar is "bad news". I don't recall reading anything positive about the Miami-based company (if they're even based there) and its Mac clones.

Proof that Psystar's Open Computer is a natural at running Leopard comes from a guy named Patrick (Whiskeyfrown), who is currently using Mac OS X 10.5 on his machine. He taped the booting process and yes, the Open Computer works as intended. He was also extra careful to show that the video is legit. Read on for ... |

By now you must be quite familiar with Psystar's Open Computer (if not, click here) formerly known as the OpenMac, a system that violates Apple's EULA (end user license agreement) for coming pre-installed with Leopard at the buyer's request.
