I wouldn't be surprised if Jobs still has a Cube running at home.

Did Microsoft sell its shares of Apple that it bought in 1997? Just asking.

Oh! Those poor kids. Mr. Gates and Mrs. gates suck. What could those kids do if Zune is not that popular and cool.

mine doesn't sound like a jet taking off but then again mine wont even turn on and is actually on a UPS Truck in its way to Texas to the Microcrap Repair center to get fixed for the 14th time... I am about to take it out to the middle of the desert and blow this hunk of junk up... then hold out for Apple to make a gaming console...

XBox 360 Repairs = 14

Playstation 3 Repairs = 1 (but was due to 2 year old son sticking 4 discs into the drive at one time)

Nintendo Wii Repairs = 0

I guess you are not familiar with one of the biggest technology failures in history, Apple's attempt at a gaming console called Pippin. The device was destroyed by the Playstation and Nintendo consoles. However, I do love your Playstation 3 repair. Introducing the new Playstation 3 Blu-Ray Changer. That must have been an unfortunate repair.

"I would say that those poor Gates children might feel a little left out when all their peers show up at school sporting the hippest new iPod, while they're just staring at their Zunes."
Well maybe, but at least the Gates children can squirt all over each other!
:-D

If I was Bill I would let my kids have iPods and wife have iPhone & a MacBook Pro great way to check out the competition......





well not using any of your competitions stuff to build a brand as you put it is a little rediculous thats like owning a Restuarant but not eatting anything else............... can't eat my competitions food....

It's fun to know that... despite all the Gates Microsoft money... they can't buy the techno miracles of the moment.
I can!!!
