To me, this is Apple news - I moved it over to the Rumors & Reports section.

Glad to see them go, even though I do follow the OSX86 project.

It was to me. I was pretty convinced there was someone else with deep pockets backing this thing. Unless they pulled out thinking that the case wasn't going so well...

I think they were spending all their time and money into the legal battles with Apple and not doing the thing they thing they were in business for. Making Apple clones. But they could not make the clones without winning a few legal battles first. So it seems they were doomed from the start.

I think if somebody was backing them, they pulled out the second it was reveled that Psystar had no records...at all not a good way to run a legit business.
