Apple fires first shot in Clone Wars

 

The mighty Apple will bring the full force of its dogs of law down upon cheeky cloning minnow Psystar according to The Gray Blog, a lawyerly web site specialising in copyright law.

The blog claims, "Apple, Inc, manufacturer of the well known line of computers and software, filed suit on July 3 in the federal district court for the northern district of California against Florida company Psystar, Inc.

The suit alleges counts for violation of its shrink wrap license, trademark and copyright infringement."

Psystar has maintained that it is doing nothing wrong and that Apple's EULA may well be contrary to US monopolies legislation.
