So it already is doing the legal way. The only other legal way to emulate Mac without the ROM at this time is a company in CA. just annouced not too long ago that they have a clean room clone MAC OS which have not legally tested. ( i.e. Apple have not file any law suit nor the court has say it's not infringe Apple's right. They are waiting to see who is going to take the first shot from Apple). There is no cheaper solution until that clone ROM pass its legal challnge, and Mr. Small is not big enough to take that chance. ( Beside it's better for him to spend time in making better products for ST rather than spend time in court, Don't you think so?) Well, just my 2 cents. Tang sytang@lamar.colostate.edu
