Echt ?
Volgens het site OSx86 is er een speciale .kext (Kernel Extention) file in de OSX implementatie op de Intel DualCore gebaseerde nieuwe iMac/MacBookPro computers gezet, om hackers af te schrikken :-/

We’ve received some information regarding Apple's newest portable, the MacBook Pro, and with it a hidden message for would-be hackers. We were made privy to a text dump from the System Profiler of one of the new MacBooks and, naturally, couldn’t wait to sort through its contents. What we didn’t expect to see was a warning from Apple to those that would hack OS X, presumably to those wanting it to run on beige-box PCs:
