This actually surprised me, as I was fairly sure something was clearly not right about selling OS X on a non-Mac. But as you can see from Engadget, the Open Computer is indeed very real. So I guess this means we can put aside thoughts of vaporware or men working of out of dimly lit rooms with no good in mind.

Yet even knowing this is a legitimate operation, how in the world is Apple not coming unglued? Had anyone tried this, they would have sued them silly. But for some very strange reason, Apple, an admitted hardware company that uses OS X to make their hardware more valuable, does not appear phased in the slightest.

I have a thought on this and if I am right, OS X’s market share could eventually grow significantly. What if Apple has finally opted to ignore these types of operations? Seriously, OS X is really less imortant to them than the hardware that powers it. And for most Mac users, it is about the complete package anyway. So perhaps, this means that we are about to see the tip of a much larger operation here soon. Maybe, this company is just one of many, who are about to turn the OS world on its ear. Because afterall, this company by itself will do nothing to OS X’s adoption rate. It will take at least dozens if not hundreds to be trully significant, right? Or could this be enough by itself?
