We've Been Nice, We Swear (12/4/00)

Hey, you! Are you done with your holiday shopping yet? If you answered "yes," let us rephrase the question slightly: are you done with all of your holiday shopping yet, including purchasing the traditional gifts for the production staff of your favorite Apple-themed soap opera? Uh-huh. That's what we thought. Well, the clock's a-tickin', but don't panic just yet; Apple's gone and lent you a hand, in the form of the Apple Store Holiday Gift Guide.
Yes, there you can find dozens of terrific ideas for all of those hard-to-buy-for Mac enthusiasts on your list. Whether you need something appropriate for an artist, a traveller, a gamer, or some other category, Apple's got plenty of suggestions grouped by type. (Be warned, however, that while "Videomakers" won its own page, "Soap Opera Producers" didn't make the cut.) If you'd rather browse on a budget, Apple has thoughtfully grouped gift ideas into several price ranges, so you can keep an eye on where your money goes. This makes it easy for you to get cheap gifts for the less important Mac users in your life, while saving up enough cash to spend big on those certain special someones who bring you drama and joy every weekday of your otherwise dreary little life.
And so, we'd like to thank Apple for making it simple and straightforward for you-- er, all of us-- to purchase, say, a Canon ZR10 digital camcorder for the people who toil day after day to make our lives special. Between the Gift Guide, One-Click Shopping, and the current free shipping promotion, Apple has bent over backwards to make your holiday shopping as easy and painless as using your Mac. Why, it'd be a crime not to take advantage of this wonderful technology! By the way, on a completely unrelated note, if anyone needs our snail mail address for any reason, we're glad to oblige...

 | | The above scene was taken from the 12/4/00 episode: December 4, 2000: Microsoft tries desperately to prove that PC users are sexier than Mac users. Meanwhile, Intel may not be quite as far ahead of Motorola in the Megahertz Wars as the company would like everyone to think, but AMD's coming up fast, and Apple posts a Holiday Gift Guide to make it easy for you to buy something great for those certain special soap opera producers in your life...
Other scenes from that episode: 2717: Always Causing Trouble (12/4/00) Uh-oh, the platform wars have suddenly taken a decidedly personal turn. Apparently Bill Gates got tired of being classified as the quintessential geek, not to mention the constant stinging jabs at his manhood... 2718: AMD: The OTHER White Meat (12/4/00) Unless you've been living in a state of unflinching denial for the past year (and hey, who could blame you?), you know the score in the Megahertz Wars: Motorola (and therefore, Apple), 500 MHz; Intel, 1.5 GHz...
