The guy indicated he was running a Compiz install configured to look like OS X. I am not concerned with that. although some have tottally missed that part of the video. My concern is that threads about running OS X on non PC hardware because of fear of Apple lawyers have been shut down. This PPC chip thread has turned into a discussion of running OS X on non-Apple hardware. To be consistent in applying the rules means that the " maybe because running OS X on a PS3 is just so > freakin' unlikely to happen in any useful/meaningful/product > threatening way that it qualifies for the "Who really frickin' cares?" > exception?" is not only not a part of list rules but a rationalization for an > " anything goes " attitude about LEM.
