Apple will offer Psystar a way out without loss of face

According to Infoworld, Apple will sign an agreement with Psystar that could put at an end the crisis and the war between the two companies. In this agreement, Psystar would agree not to sell any more machines on which Mac OS X is pre-installed and should pay Apple damages of which the amount is not known. In exchange, Apple would stop the proceedings against the company and would accept the amount of these damages once Psystar have exhausted all the possible appeals.
If this agreement is signed, Apple will give an indication of firmness but also of great leniency. Psystar will be able to continue to sell its clones, but deprived of Mac OS X and thus will be nothing but decorated PC, something that one can find easily on Internet, in short, of the PC without OS is what thousands offer.
This implicitly affirms their position vis-a-vis Hackintosh. They are tolerated when "home made" by the general public (attention: tolerated does not mean authorized) but prohibited to be marketed. Most important for them is certainly that this business collapses as quickly as possible. Without gaining anything significant in the end, Psystar has ensured the promotion of Hackintosh in a way that Apple would have passed by.
