That, and it's a tad amusing to watch the whole Zune thing in action.
"New from MS: Vista. New from MS: Zune. Doesn't work with Vista. Stick
with XP or someone else's player. Or both."
Of course, we can't forget their OneCare line, either: "We can't make the
crap safe, but we can make the crap safe. Just pay us more." Yeah,
right, sure. I'm gonna trust _them_ to keep Windows safe.
Is there anyone left over at MS who *isn't* actively trying to gut the
company from the inside out?
