Cloning Macs, December Edition

I don't know why, but it seems cloning Macs starts to become a widespread business. Oh, wait - I DO know why is this happening, and - first of all - it was Apple's fault to switch from the PowerPC processors to Intel ones. Obviously, now anyone can build a "Mac OS X-compatible," although this is not something Apple's lawyers leave unpunished, especially when you start selling such clones around and advertise for them on a website...

First, we had some lone eBay seller, then the OpenTech Mac clones, and then we heard about Psystar, over and over again. Now, the time has come for those cloning Macs outside the US to show up in the spotlight, since today's "Mac maker" comes straight from Argentina!

OpeniMac, the first company who's into cloning Macs in South America, has two computers on sale - the OpeniMac, featuring a 2.53GHz Core 2 Duo processor, 2GB of RAM, a 320GB SATA drive, SuperDrive and an ATI Radeon HD PRO video card, and selling for for $990($1,330 with monitor), and the OpeniMac PRO, with a 3.0GHz Core 2 Duo processor, support for 4GB of memory, a 500GB SATAII drive, a SuperDrive, and a Nvidia GeForce GS video card for $1,710US. Even more, both of them come with a 6-in-1 memory card reader built-in and a 20" LCD!

What else can I say but "LOL?!?" I knew this is going to happen the minute I found out about Apple planning to use Intel processors, and now I think the best solution for them would be to allow Mac OS X to run on any computer, and turn into a second Microsoft...but leaving most of the bad parts aside!
