ZDNet reports that Apple has asked Judge William Alsup to dismiss "with prejudice" PsyStar's countersuit against Mac maker, which means the clone maker couldn't seek to change, update or otherwise refile if the bench agrees. The Court should reject Psystar’s efforts to excuse its copyright infringement, and dismiss these Counterclaims with prejudice.
