Psystar's legal battle with Apple hasn't prevented it from releasing a high-end Mac clone this week.
Psystar has launched the Open(3), a desktop machine equipped with a 2.53GHz Core2Quad processor, 4GB of RAM, 1TB of storage and a Blu-ray burner. Of course, it ships loaded with Mac OS X Leopard.
That's some pretty bad ass hardware. The desktop starts at $600, and with maxed-out configurations it runs up to about $2,000. However, that's still less than a Mac Pro, which starts at $2,500.
Psystar, a Florida-based company, began selling Mac clones April 2008. Three months later, Apple filed a lawsuitalleging Psystar was committing copyright, trademark and shrink-wrap infringement.
