MacNN reports on a new Mac-based web site. "As the Apple Turns is a new daily web site that follows the latest "angst-soaked news and rumors from the wild and woolly world of Apple...in an effort to compile the more dramatic pieces of information from the more prominent Mac news sites and present them in the context they seem to...

...Whoops, we've gone self-referential. Sorry about that. Ever pointed a camcorder at its own monitor screen? ;-)

From the writer/creator of AtAT, a Pandemic Dad Joke taken WAYYYYYY too far

 

The above scene was taken from the 9/22/97 episode:

September 22, 1997: (Sorry—this was before we started writing intro text for each episode!)

Other scenes from that episode:

  • 10: Power's Parthian Shot (9/22/97)   If you've sat through our credits, you may have noticed that AtAT is created on a Power Computing PowerTower Pro 200 (named Victoria, incidentally). Well, you can bet that we're not overly thrilled that our lovely machine is now an orphan, with the demise of Power Computing's Mac OS business...

  • 11: Claris Pricing Scandal (9/22/97)   Faithful reader Norman Ackerman points out something noteworthy going on over at Claris. Seems that the Apple-owned software company has seen fit to charge Mac users more than Windows users for the same software...

  • 12: A Little Slow (9/22/97)   Macintouch has a link to a San Francisco Examiner article in which ex-cast member Gil Amelio (remember him? He used to play Apple CEO) finally starts to catch on. Gullible Gil has apparently finally started to realize that maybe, just maybe, Steve Jobs had something to do with his being thrown off the show last July. Yay, we're all on the same page again!...

Why did you tune in to this '90s relic of a soap opera?
Nostalgia is the next best thing to feeling alive
My name is Rip Van Winkle and I just woke up; what did I miss?
I'm trying to pretend the last 20 years never happened
I mean, if it worked for Friends, why not?
I came here looking for a receptacle in which to place the cremated remains of my deceased Java applets (think about it)

DISCLAIMER: AtAT was not a news site any more than Inside Edition was a "real" news show. We made Dawson's Creek look like 60 Minutes. We engaged in rampant guesswork, wild speculation, and pure fabrication for the entertainment of our viewers. Sure, everything here was "inspired by actual events," but so was Amityville II: The Possession. So lighten up.

Site best viewed with a sense of humor. AtAT is not responsible for lost or stolen articles. Keep hands inside car at all times. The drinking of beverages while watching AtAT is strongly discouraged; AtAT is not responsible for damage, discomfort, or staining caused by spit-takes or "nosers."
