Default Creator of Mac Clones (PsyStar) possible fake

As you might have heard, there is a new company called PsyStar. It is claiming to sell Mac Clones with OS X Leopard pre-installed for prices starting at $399. Now I came past another article that claims to have noticed that the company is propably fake (it's not on the address where it claims to be, and the phone number is shut down). Full Article

Maybe it is fake, but it is still possible to run OS X on a standard PC.

If it was legal, then I'd be doing it! I'm sure Apple would have a larger number of customers if it just sold the OS for people to run on standard PC's. I'd have it!

well it's better than any OS I've seen so far.

But if that company is indeed fake, it might be a way to steal money from people (if you can get a machine that runs Mac OS at high speed, and is cheaper than a Mac Mini, you might want to buy it).
