Jive PC Claims to run OS X

I don’t know what the folks behind Jive PC are thinking, but they’re certainly setting themselves up for a visit from Apple’s legal department by declaring that their Jive PC is a machine that allows one to install OS X on it.

Due to the complex configuration of the RSOL PC Multi-Platform Desktop computer, installing or reinstalling the OSx86 operating system should only be performed by users who have a thorough understanding of the open source technology necessary that allows a modified version of Mac OS X® software to run on our models. RSOL PC provides no software support for your non-Windows operating system. NOTE: RSOL PC does not recommend, endorse or participate in the unauthorized distribution or illegal use of copyrighted software.

The Jive PC will retail for $628, and their marketing claim is not as scary as it should be – after all, OS X can be feasibly installed on non-Mac hardware, its just that Apple doesn’t like it. At all.
