Apple has filed a suit against Psystar Corporation for alleged copyright infringement, trademark and trade infringement, breach of contract, and unfair competition.. In order to take action against the company they are recalling every single one of the Mac clones that have already been sold by Psystar.

Psystar began selling the Open Computer in April. The Open Computer used a modified version of Apple’s OS X, according to Apple’s suit, and provided unauthorized patches that Apple claimed were simply copied from its own Web site. A similar Openserv server sold by Psystar allegedly used the Mac OS X Server edition.

Apple has something special planned for this year’s WWDC and it will come in the form of the brand new Mac OS X 10.6. If things stay on schedule the new computer will be shipping out January of 2009.

The WWDC – Apple Worldwide Developers Conference – will be held June 9-13 in San Francisco. There Apple will be revealing some pertinent and rather exciting (according to rumors) news about the new Mac OS X Leopard.

This week Apple spent most of their time fixing the security breaches and vulnerabilities that were found in many of the components and application that were bundled with the Mac OS X. Yesterday they were able to patch 40 of these security problems which were found in 25 of the applications. These applications included iCal, Flash Player, and Apache.
