Apple asks Wired to remove video clip demoing how to install OS X on a Wind

All the talk about running OS X on a netbook system has apparently raised an eyebrow or two over at Apple. The company recently approached Wired.com requesting that a video clip of installing a hacked version of OS X on an MSI Wind netbook be removed. This video clip appeared alongside a “Wired Gadget Lab” posting dating back to December and written by author Brian X. Chen. However, the posting itself is still up – but the video is now gone. It looks like Apple is somewhat OK with the posting – just not the video clip. Here’s hoping the posting stays up because at the very least this shows people are looking for an inexpensive way to run one of their favorite platforms – OS X.

They have a reason to ask for removing it. But once it has been publish around the net surely there are lots already seen it and republish.
