Clone Computers and the use of Mac's Operating System
I found this article to be very interesting. I'm not quite sure what sort of case Mac would have against the other computer companies. I'm sure they would like to keep a lock on the market. If people are able to start using Mac OSX on less expensive computers Apple, I feel, will lose a lot of its brand equity. Not to mention they might starting losing some significant market share. I feel like these clones are diluting the Mac brand however I'm not sure if anything illegal has gone on. Here is a link to the whole article: http://blog.wired.com/gadgets/2008/12/hackers-start-u.html

This article is very interesting! I would have to agree with you in that I can see Mac loosing significant market share if this were allowed to happen. As we saw in Kathy's presentation last night, Mac has worked very hard to create a brand and sell their products to a very defined and targeted market. It seems as though Mac will always be in the middle of a lawsuit! Great post.
