Now would-be ‘Mac cloner’ Psystar sells Mac OS X Snow Leopard virtualization to third-parties

“In spite of an ongoing legal dispute with Apple, clone Mac maker Psystar Monday announced plans to license its virtualization technology for Mac OS X to third-party hardware vendors,” Slash Lane reports for AppleInsider.

“The new Psystar OEM Licensing Program will allow Intel machines to run Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. The announcement is a bold move likely to catch the ire of Apple, which plans to start its trial against the Florida-based company in January 2010.,” Lane reports.

“The new program will allow manufacturers to have hardware certified by Psystar, and allows use of the company’s Darwin Universal Boot Loader. The software will allow manufacturers to install Snow Leopard by inserting the disc from Apple — no additional steps would be necessary, the company said,” Lane reports.
