Devil Went To Redmond (10/11/97)

The Macintosh Conspiracy had an Anti-Microsoft day today, and we've got to thank them for pointing us to this nifty story on scripting.com. We're always up for another "Bill Gates Meets Satan" action. This one is relevant to the recent flap over Microsoft shipping an incompatible version of Java.

Interesting tidbit that popped up the other day: Did you know that Microsoft charges $95 per incident for Windows NT support? The first two are free, though, so make 'em count...

Other scenes from that episode:

  • 73: Battle Lines Drawn (10/11/97)   The MacOS Rumors folks have opened up the Wacko File again, and it reveals preparations of an Apple civil war of epic proportions. If all of this pans out, you'll have a story to tell your grandkids...

  • 74: A Less Crabby Crabb (10/11/97)   In an article that we at AtAT find uncharacteristically charitable, Don Crabb puts forth the reasons why he thinks Steve Jobs would be the best CEO for Apple after all. We wouldn't expect Don to be so supportive of the possibility, even though his reasoning essentially amounts to the fact that no one but Jobs is crazy enough to pull off the miracle that would be Apple's survival...

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)
