Apple Alters License to Stop Booting on Generic x86s
Is this a big deal? Its not like semthex’s work allowed you to run the full stack, all the way up through Aqua, on your run of the mill beige box. I guess it is disingenuous to play to the open source practitioners then yank the rug out from under them, regardless of the reason. If Apple is so afraid of OSX escaping onto non-Apple hardware, why go the open source route with any of their low level systems software in the first place? You can’t tell me that Marklar doesn’t predate or wasn’t at least closely contemporaneous with their license decision.
