Psystar Gets The Bejeezus Sued Out Of Them By…

Apple. Who else?

From the Captain Obvious and Duh Files, sources say (as if there weren’t enough of them) that Psystar has been sued so bad they’ll be owing money to Apple well into the next century (give or take a decade).

Steve Jobs himself has said that the reason people want a Mac is because of OS X. And he’s right. Granted, the box looks nice and all that jazz, but the utilization of the hardware inside (which is what counts) is from OS X itself. But you need a true-blue Mac to experience what OS X is all about.

I make it no secret that I’m not a Mac person. But if I were, I’d never buy a cloned Mac. Ever. The packaging, design and execution of Apple products can only be experienced when you specifically buy Apple products and not cheap knock-offs.

More or less everyone universally agrees that Psystar was asking to get sued into oblivion. Well, they got their wish.

Time Warner Proves Success Can Kill You, Gets Sued By L.A.

The City of Angels decided it was fed up with Time Warner with its (very) poor customer service for pay-TV support and slapped a 25-page lawsuit against them. City attorney stated TW violated California law with false and misleading statements, ripping people off and must be held accountable for it.

Time Warner is the #1 pay-TV service in L.A. and has held that “distinction” for 2 years. This occurred when when they joined with Comcast (d’oh!) in ‘06. But then TW had to upgrade a bunch of equipment in the merge and evidently cut a few corners (a lot of corners) during this upgrade. Now it seems they’ll be paying the price for it.

PCMech Highly Recommends...

The Hacker's Nightmare is a full 500+ pages of valuable content. It has plenty of diagrams and illustrations and is broken down into small sections with easy step-by-step procedures. This is what I like about this book. It is powerful information that everybody needs, but it doesn't read like a boring computer manual. LEARN MORE
