It's been going on for months, but Apple have simply remained quiet. I guess
that with all the bittorrents and extensive documentations out there, it
could soon become an epidemic. It could cost Apple plenty of money. Even
long-time Macheads would rather purchase an O/S-free box from the shop
(around 150 GBP for a 2.2GHz Intel) and avoid the Apple hardware tax, as
well as the need for an OSX licence.
