4 Even Apple Can't Keep a Good Hacker Down
In It's efforts to stop use of Snow Leopard on Intel (Atom) based
netbooks (which include Dell Hewlett-Packard, Samsung, EEE and
Lenovo, Apple's recent upgrade (10.6.2)have Locked them Out. One of the designers who simplified the Hackintosh mod into a
user-friendly installer was on the case immediately and offered a quick
fix.
In addition, he stated that a full-blown fix will be available in "a few weeks" -- barely enough time for Apple to enjoy its "silver bullet."
As incredible as the speed and diligence of the hacker community is, even more astounding is
the notion that companies are able to fully control how their products are run once they're
sold. No matter how many safeguards and legal threats a company makes, a little intuitive
tinkering will always make short work of them. Preventative measures are simply a waste of
valuable time and resources.
Heh, heh, heh....
