Did Psystar threaten to “out” Jobs et al.?

Dear Mr. Patel,

Psystar was informed about Steve Jobs’ dirty little secret about stealing the iPhone and Tablet, so that they could play “the nuclear option” in a legal loss, and out Steve Jobs. (On the logic that both would lose if Psystar loses) After the decisive win by Apple a week or two ago, Psystar may have threatened Steve to do just that?  Legal analysts said Psystar had no legs to stand on.  Yet now, having already won, and against a decades old policy of NOT letting Mac OS’s run on non-Apple hardware, Jobs & Company may be willing to permit Psystar to continue, so long as the OS isn’t pre-installed???  If that is so (unclear just yet), why??? WHY???  More significantly, what if EVERY defendant sued by Apple has the “nuclear option” at its disposal?  Apple will die the proverbial “death by a thousand cuts”.  Isn’t it clear something “funny” is happening at Apple?
