The notorious Apple spinning rainbow disc has invaded the Rifftides mainframe computer, also known as a MacBook Pro. Several hours of the entire staff’s concerted technical efforts have failed to regain control. We can’t even illustrate the problem with a representation of the spinning disc because when we try to show it—guess what?—right, the real spinning disc disables the system. We will isolate the cause and defeat it as soon as possible. Please check in periodically.

June 25, 2016 at 11:30 amThe spinning disc part of the problem seems to have been solved after four hours on the phone with Apple technical experts. Rifftides will post again after we recover from the telephone marathon and gather what’s left of our wits.
Thanks to all for your patience.
