Apple is not. However, that has no bearing on this debate. The problem is that Psystar was BUNDLING OS X with their machines; Apple's ToS clearly states that you cannot resell or bundle it, an OS X license is for end-user use only. If they would've just sold OS X-capable machines, there would've been no issues. Microsoft is a legal monopoly. Apple is not. However, that has no bearing on this debate.

I understand that they offer high end electronics but I don't recall hearing anything about Mercedes going after VW in the 30's for creating an affordable alternative to the german engineered auto. Be happy with the profits Psystar gives you from OSX. Its not like they're selling the same copy of pirated software to every customer.

The idea on doing high end only is stupid though: as long as they don't sell cheap computers companies like Psystar will crop up. They should create a "cheap brand" like Asus did with Asrock, that way they would protect the image of their main brand and provide cheaper OSX computer to those that want them.

Does apple sell their OS as a retail product? If they do, then you can put it on what ever hardware you can get to run it. Lets get MS to provide its legal team. You can bet MS legal Dept is probably as large as Apple is as a whole. And people call MS monopolistic…
