Psystar Exits Bankruptcy, Launches New Xeon-Based Systems Running OS X
Psystar, manufacturer of unauthorized Mac clones currently involved in a legal battle with Apple, reports that it has exited Chapter 11 bankruptcy and is again prepared to take on Apple. Psystar filed for bankruptcy just over one month ago.
As you all may already be aware in late May, Psystar filed for Chapter 11 protection. Although this was critical to our continued daily operations, we now are ready to emerge and again battle Goliath.
More information will be available in the coming days when we will be formally discharged by the Bankruptcy court.
When life gives you apples, make applesauce.
Psystar also announced the release of the Open(7), a new high-end system based on Intel's Nehalem Xeon platform. The new system is available in desktop and rackmountable models, with pricing for both versions beginning at $1499 with OS X Leopard preinstalled.
