WHERE ARE THEY NOW? The Stars Of Great Apple Commercials

The "1984" commercial starred accomplished discus thrower Anya Major.

She went on to star in an Elton John video and released a single named Moscow Nights.

And here's a very cool anecdote about the commercial, which nearly didn't get aired: "Chiat-Day wanted the commercial to qualify for upcoming advertising awards, so they ran it once at 1 AM at a small television station in Twin Falls, Idaho, KMVT, on December 15, 1983. And sure enough it won just about every possible award, including best commercial of the decade. Twenty years later it's considered one of the most memorable television commercials ever made."

Harry Shum Jr. danced in all grey.

Now he stars in "Glee."

Mac and PC battled.

Justin Long has a movie career...

Die Hard!

... while John Hodgman is a comedy star.

And he chases turkeys for Bon Appetit.

Ellen Feiss starred in the Errol Morris-directed 2002 commercial.

She had a brief career in movies (including Bed and Breakfast) and turned down offers to go on Leno and Letterman.

The "Crazy Ones" became a rallying cry.

You know what happened to Einstein, Bob Dylan, Martin Luther King Jr., John Lennon, and the rest. Steve Jobs certainly joined their ranks.

This woman ran away.

We have no idea what happened to her.

But could she be Susan Sarandon or Sheryl Crow?

Jeff Goldblum loves to hear himself talk.

He still does.

Janie Porche saved Christmas.

Eventually, she settled in Chicago and become an interactive designer.

She works at White Whale. Here's her website and her Twitter account.

A little about her: "I eat a lot of dining hall burritos salads while hearing about student portals. I tend to make friends along the way."

Seiji Hongo switched to Apple.

Hongo continued in his field, publishing about influenza.

We didn't understand this at all.

This little boy wanted Dinosaurs.

We don't know who he is. But he sure is cute.

You know who had final say on those ads???
