Psystar slaps Apple around, releases Mac clones with Blu-ray / GeForce 9800GT

Posted by Darren Murph

While suits from Psystar and Apple are currently attempting to work things out via alternative dispute resolution, the former company is doing something the latter company won’t: offer OS X-capable machines with built-in Blu-ray and NVIDIA’s GeForce 9800GT

Showing no mercy whatsoever in a recent release, Psystar calls Steve Jobs out for his controversial “bag of hurt” comment and proceeds to inform the general public that it’s “now shipping” OS X-compatible PCs (better known as Open Computers) with Blu-ray optical drives and the GeForce 9800GT GPU. Based on pricing figures gathered from the company’s website, a 6x Blu-ray writer is a $310 upgrade over a dual-layer DVD burner, while the 512MB GeForce 9800GT will set you back $200 more than the 8600GT. Whatcha got to say now, Steve? Huh? Huh?
