Not a loser, just a man who likes tattoos of creepy old men "handling" a rabbit (maybe a reference to Bell Labs' PLan9 ? ), or he is getting beau coup bucks from Micro$oft. I vote for the latter Viral marketing, that could work.
Wow, I truly don't know what everyone is so worked up about. It's just a weirdo with some Zune tattoos. But it's not half as scary as the Apple's iCult apple logo-shaved heads.
has 'creepy-old-man-handling-bunny' really become that iconographic?
i mean whether the zune is an eventual huge success or failure, it will inevitably disappear into the history books and be replaced with the next gen technology and this guy will have a 'creepy-old-man-handling-bunny' on his goddamned arm.
What kind of man gets two Zune tattoos? This guy. I'd say he's pretty famous, supporting Microsoft like this. The Zune is no iPod killer, but it does work exceptionally well. I can see backing it.
I personally prefer a triple-boot system.. Apple OS X (when Leopard arrives, I'll have that), Windows Vista Ultimate, and Fedora Linux. All three platforms have their pros and cons. When I feel like being creative, I swing over to OS X, when I feel like working, Windows, and when I feel like learning command line, Linux.

LMFAO the site you link to got slashdotted -engadgetted. But i really couldnt care less if he got zune tattoos.. the logo is cool i gotta admit :p ( I wouldnt do it tho :S)
Wow. Whatever happened to t-shirts? I mean, tattoos are just a bad idea. We have better means of self expression now. Maybe tattoo your SL avatar or something...
I think that he is using henna tattoo coloring. Its non-permanent and looks much like the real thing. You apply it to you skin and it stains your skin for 5 days (assuming you have decent hygiene.
So as much as I hate it when people instantly scream "'shopped!" I actually think this may be a fake tattoo. When I got mine, and when I've seen other people get them, they're usually red and swollen. Granted, this could be a pic from a few days after the inking, but then why take the photo in the tattoo parlor? Just sayin'
Hate zunes (don't hate, just dont love microsoft), love this guy.
He sure has guts after getting ragged on the internet to post another pic. Congrats man, you have more balls then all these ladies!!! But i would never get one...Maybe carve my body into the shaoe of an apple...but thats not as hardcore!

MS can't look after itself??!!
Byrongman @ Jun 19th 2007 7:11PM
I like this picture better.
He's got more of a teddy bear look this time around.
McGinley @ Jun 19th 2007 7:11PM
I dont know what type of anticipation you have at Engadget,but I definitely do not look regretful when I'm anticipating something.
This is a sign to all apple fanboys that no matter how hard you try,you will never be able to persuade hardcore zune fanboys to join your side.
15+15 = 30 minutes of internet fame.
Luke @ Jun 19th 2007 7:13PM
What a silly man.
robert @ Jun 19th 2007 9:46PM
i bet its sharpie in his buddies tat parlor. no one would actually do that. not even if microsoft gave him 2 zunes would it be worth it!

Now that's something scary!

Hair grows back.
Josh @ Jun 19th 2007 8:06PM
That's even creepier.
This guy made a horrible decision once (well, twice). Those guys make a horrible decision every time they go to the barber's.
andres @ Jun 19th 2007 7:17PM
Welcome to the social..
I was promise a social opportunities with cute scenesters chicks (like in their marketing) not a large bouncer looking guy.

Has the thought that this guy's actually hired by microsoft for viral marketing purposes crossed your mind?
Blake @ Jun 19th 2007 7:28PM
Viral marketing?

The kind of man that is getting paid by Microsoft for some delicious viral marketing.

Welcome to my parent's basement Super awesome bachelor pad.
Staticoranges @ Jun 19th 2007 7:42PM
Sorry. that was supposed to look better. I forgot no HTML. The parent's basement was supposed to be crossed out.

Ted @ Jun 19th 2007 10:52PM
Only a moron would do that. The same goes for iPod/iPhone/Apple geeks if they get something similar put on their bodies.
Robert @ Jun 19th 2007 8:44PM
so he can only eat 3 times in the next 3 days no?
Bobo @ Jun 19th 2007 7:49PM
What's he gonna do when it's discontinued next year?
Tavis Veighey @ Jun 19th 2007 7:49PM
LOL Looks like it was drawn on with a sharpie!
Kris Burbidge @ Jun 19th 2007 7:50PM
He's no fan. This guy's just setting up for a 3rd tattoo design that will be sold to Golden Palace for $10,000.
Dude @ Jun 20th 2007 10:06PM
LOL!
Ismael @ Jun 19th 2007 7:59PM
LMFAO the site you link to got slashdotted -engadgetted.
But i really couldnt care less if he got zune tattoos.. the logo is cool i gotta admit :p ( I wouldnt do it tho :S)
Drew @ Jun 19th 2007 8:17PM
How much do you want to bet that those are temporary tattoos
dick buttkiss @ Jun 19th 2007 8:20PM
is it?
ethana2 @ Jun 19th 2007 8:45PM
Wow. Whatever happened to t-shirts? I mean, tattoos are just a bad idea. We have better means of self expression now. Maybe tattoo your SL avatar or something...

I say this ones a fake.
Bobo @ Jun 19th 2007 8:51PM
It's ironic because he got Dell DJ inked on his rear.
BEETROOT @ Jun 19th 2007 8:54PM
There's no telling what he's going to do next...
Galley @ Jun 20th 2007 9:49AM
I imagine it will be an HD DVD tattoo. He seems to really be into failing technologies.
TAJ @ Jun 19th 2007 9:00PM

BEETROOT @ Jun 19th 2007 10:08PM
I actually got a new tattoo yesterday, and its not swollen at all. Simple lines (like mine and his) tend to heal quickly with minimal swelling.
Neuron @ Jun 20th 2007 7:29PM
Disgusting. He's like a character straight out of the film 'Idiocracy'.
mark burban @ Jun 19th 2007 9:40PM
DRM Tattoo Ink, You can either show to 3 people, or have tattoo fade away after 3 days..
craper @ Jun 19th 2007 11:44PM
Next one will be on his forehead - hard to sleep until then
FrankTheCrank @ Jun 19th 2007 9:39PM
This makes me want to smash my Zune...well, if I had one.
