Fairchild Garden World of tropical plants in Coral Gables, Miami

Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden is a botanic garden, with extensive collections of rare tropical plants including palms, cycads, flowering trees and vines, located in Coral Gables

The garden was established in 1938 by David Fairchild, one of the great plant explorers, and Robert H. Montgomery, an accountant, attorney, and businessman with a passion for plant-collecting.

He retired to Miami in 1935, but many plants still growing in the Garden were collected and planted by Dr. Fairchild, including a giant African baobab tree and a medium-sized coonatorius palm tree not far from the entrance.

Documented botanical specimens provide valuable resources in science and education, while horticultural displays and the classic landscape design by William Lyman Phillips offer visitors an unforgettable aesthetic experience.

Miami Based Psystar creates Apple Mini Clone

Via Engadget.com:

Psystar’s offer to build off-license OSx86 OpenMac clones was apparently pretty popular — we saw a note from the company saying it was trying hard to cope with the rush of traffic, but it looks like things got overwhelming, and the site is now down. People are speculating that Apple already shut things down, but that’s pretty unlikely: nothing on the Psystar site infringed any of Apple’s IP (as far as we can recall) and the company hadn’t actually sold anything yet, which means there isn’t much of anything for Apple to go to court over.

On top of that, we doubt that Psystar wasn’t expecting to attract Apple’s attention, so we don’t think a cease and desist letter would scare the company into shutting things completely down.

Of course, we’re still willing to bet that Apple’s legal team is licking their chops in anticipation of something actionable happening, but we’d say the most interesting thing about this so far is the incredible amount of attention a low-cost expandable minitower running OS X has gotten — maybe someone at Apple apart from the lawyers should be taking notes as well.
