A few days ago, FreeMacBlog reported on an upstart company called PsyStar. This company was claiming it would release a cheap Mac OS X running PC. The more and more I hear about their company and practices, the more I’m starting to believe that it’s all a hoax.

If you’ve been keeping up with PsyStar news I’d most likely say you agree. For those not in the loop, here has been what’s happening with Psystar. When the PC first came available, PsyStar nearly stopped taking orders, claiming they were moving their physical address. They stated the reason for the move, was due to such a high demand of orders. Psystar then came out, and gave yet another excuse for not taking orders. Their vendor, Powerpay, stopped taking transactions through PsyStar. Louisa Deluca, in a News.com report stated that PsyStar violated their terms of agreement. “She declined to cite specific violations, but said ‘there are plenty of reasons why we shut the account off. We did not know that’s what he was selling, we learned that yesterday.”

All of this is just a huge red flag for anything relating to this company. I just hope that people didn’t actually send this company any money and get caught up in the scam. For anyone who did make the purchase, I’d like to hear back and see if you received the product. And if so does the computer run well at all?
