Psystar has not given up and comes out on the attack

In spite of its first defeat against Apple, Psystar has not given up hope and sets out again on the attack by modifying its arguments. They are centered around two points:
- That Apple’s Mac OS EULA abuses copyright law (misuse doctrine) and is being used to block competition
- That Apple is using the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) as a form of paracopyright, going beyond the protection offered by copyright.
Other points are raised in the detail in the documents provided by Psystar to the courts. They reproach Apple of having intentionally added to Mac OS X code in order to pose problems if one tries to run it on non-Apple hardware…
In short, they make fire of any wood they find to obtain a win in a business that looks rather bad for them. But they have hardly any other choice. Either they manage to obtain win, or their company will have to put the shutters up.
