Assumptions
"Assuming they pay Apple for every copy they sell..."

D'ya think this may be the little hitch in your argument? By
what mechanism exactly do you see Apple accepting
money from a company that is aggressively violating their
license? This improbability can only occur if the other
improbability occurs first, that is, they choose to pay,
which also isn't going to happen.

Pystar claims they can do this because of Apple monopoly
status?. That's the first I've heard of Apple's monopoly
status. Were you aware of antitrust action against Apple?

What kind of bunk is this from ZDNet?

I think I know. The PC ecosystem that has owed IT a living
for all these years is starting to dissolve and the
alternatives are not amenable to another open architecture
circle jerk. But hope springs eternal right?

The Mac clone business had been allowed to happen under
Amelio. It was summarily shut down by Jobs. If it couldn't
have been shut down, it wouldn't have been then. All this
coy talk about legal ambiguity is nothing but a
manifestation of wishful thinking by the IT industry and a
cheap Chinese motherboard maker. Get a grip.
