Hackintosh maker bites back at Apple

Apple misses the entire point

Seems to me that Apple is going down the same road IBM went in the late 80's-early 90s. After considerable success, they tied the software to the proprietary hardware (anybody remember Microchannel bus?) and gave the market to Microsoft.

If Apple made the OSX available for any Intel hardware I cared to put it on, I would have replaced all my Windows versions (at retail prices). Microsoft may have had a serious contender.

But no, they prefered to do things in the only way they knew how to. Paris, cause she's a moron too.
