Psystar, maker of the the Open Computer, has filed for bankruptcy.
The papers were filed in a Florida federal court Thursday. Psystar is more than $250,000 in debt, according to the bankruptcy petition, owed mostly to shipping and credit card processing companies.
The Chapter 11 filing will temporarily suspend Apple's copyright infringement suit against Psystar, which is currently before the U.S. District Court of Northern California. But once the bankruptcy is sorted out, the copyright case will resume.
A major question surrounding Psystar and its young CEO Rudy Pedraza has been its financing, which should come to light once all of the company's creditors are named.
Psystar began selling desktop and later laptop computers running Mac OS X in April of last year.
