[QUOTE="Geek, post: 1454491, member: 246624"] Gadget Lab writer and Giz friend Brian X. Chen [URL="http://twitter.com/bxchen/statuses/1118796512"]reveals via Twitter[/URL] that Apple "is suing Wired for [URL="http://blog.wired.com/gadgets/2008/12/gadget-lab-vide.html"]my video tutorial [/URL]on hacking netbooks to run Mac OS X." Brian actually loaned his personal MSI Wind Hackintosh [URL="http://gizmodo.com/5101565/at-gizmodo-gallery-the-full-list-of-wonderful-stuff"]for the Giz Gallery[/URL]. It seems more likely that Apple is actually sending Wired a cease-and-desist rather than asking for money—telling them to pull the tutorial, which explicitly lays out step by step how to put OS X on a netbook, including trips to The Pirate Bay to get the software, diving into the notebook's guts and other grisly details in a fantastic, super-complete guide to Hackintoshing a netbook. We'll update with more details as we get them.
