They bought one, unboxed it and did some benchmarks. It faired pretty well. http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/30/psystar-open-computer-notes-benchmarks-and-video/ I'm really on the fence about building a hackintosh. I have three PCs in the house. Two Macs and one Dell Wintel. I'd love to replace the Wintel with another Mac but don't have the cash to do it. I can build the hackintosh. If it doesn't work, I'll at least have a fairly decent Windows PC. The website Engadet did a write up on this system. They bought one, unboxed it and did some benchmarks.

I’m really on the fence about building a hackintosh. I have three PCs in the house. Two Macs and one Dell Wintel. I’d love to replace the Wintel with another Mac but don’t have the cash to do it. I can build the hackintosh. If it doesn’t work, I’ll at least have a fairly decent Windows PC.

I can see such a purchase being justified, if one also gives an equal amount to charity. Then again, buying up Psystar's inventory might help pay their upcoming legal bills, which could be seen as fulfilling one's charity obligations.
