PearC is the name given to the line of personal computers produced by
Psystar.[1] HyperMegaNet UG claims it is acting within the law because Apple's EULA – that forbids installation of Mac OS X on non-Apple branded computers – only applies if it can be seen before purchase, according to German law.[1][2]
The PearC line of personal computers consists of six models: PearC Starter, PearC Advanced, PearC Professional and PearC Expert, PearC Supreme, and PearC Business. All models are built using off-the-shelf components from
Mac OS X Mountain Lion
.
PearCs ship with a completely unmodified copy of
Mac OS X Mountain Lion
. If an Apple software update is likely to cause problems, the company advises its customers and releases a freely available patch in the form of a package installer.
All PearC personal computers come with a two-year warranty.
The company sells from websites in Spain: https://web.archive.org/web/20100402070452/http://www.pearc.es/ and Germany http://www.pearc.de/
All current products capable of running Mac OS X use Intel's 'Ivy Bridge' generation of processors.
