edibleapple.com— Apple clone-maker Psystar likes to claim that it offers a cheaper alternative to Apple. But a closer look reveals that the savings are minimal, and the risks high.

Saying "if Mac didn't overprice their systems" is like saying "if Prius didn't overprice their cars".Apple is the company, the Mac is their product. Get some f**king education.
"Sure, i mean, obviously the real thing will work better, its supposed to. However, when my $500 setup beats my friend's $2700 macbook pro's geekbench score by 600+ points, its hard to convince myself to go buy a real one."Lying at its best. The best you could get with $500 is a Pentium Dual-Core and 2GB RAM. The Mac Pro comes with 8 processor cores. Do you really think people are so stupid to believe you?Proof or STFU.

Actually, I would love the Umax clone era to return. The Umax and PowerComputing machines were superior to the Apple stuff, and cheaper.
