An Argentinian company is the latest computer maker to defy Apple and release Mac clones. Customers can choose from two models, OpeniMac and OpeniMacPRO. The standard version features a 2.53GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 2GB of DDR2 RAM, and a 320GB 7200RPM hard drive. The Pro clone integrates a 3.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 4GB of DDR2 RAM, 500GB 7200RPM hard drive, NVIDIA GeForce GS 1GB GPU, and a 20-inch LG widescreen monitor.
The OpeniMac carries a price of $990 alone or $1330 with a 19-inch monitor, while the OpeniMacPRO with the monitor is priced at $1765. The company is likely targeting a local market, as the website does not have an option to purchase. Instead, customers must enter their information into a contact page.
Florida-based Psystar sells a similar product to the OpeniMac with a monitor, but prices the package $500 below the Argentinian equivalent. The American company is involved in a heated legal battle with Apple, with a lawsuit that claims violations of the Mac OS EULA and illegal circumvention of copyright methods.
