Well, in recent days, the company has begun offering its own Mac updates for Psystar Hackintosh users, pledges more surprises in the future and is also offering a pretty nice $299 computer called the OpenLite that runs many versions of Linux and has pretty nice specs for the price.

This company is very interesting.

The $299 Linux (Ubuntu, CentOS, Fedora) offering is quite good. I am sure the OS X offering for $399 is also very good.

I wish they would ship DVDs of the Linux Distro, but I can live with the fact that they don't.
