The one thing worse than a Apple fanboi, is a Microsoft fanboi (*cough mr jack cough*).

They are like bad, poor quality versions of Apple fanbois.

Aren't you funny :) How am I a MS fanboy? Do you know what OS am I using right now?
I couldn't care less about Microsoft (or Apple for that matter).

Yes the Zune isn't perfect but it is nothing but an attempt like the terrible Motorola ROKR Apple licensed Motorola to create. I guess that rung a bell didn't it?? The Zune is just step one and the successor will be the real product to take the iPod by the horns. It's called progress and evolution, Rome wasn't built in one day. ]]>Aug 13th 2007 4:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/Aug 13th 2007 2:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/Aug 13th 2007 2:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/Aug 13th 2007 2:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/Aug 13th 2007 2:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/Aug 13th 2007 2:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/Aug 13th 2007 2:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/Aug 13th 2007 2:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/

I know. I should move on, but I'm fascinated by ethics. The Robin Hood approach is spurious at best. If you think a company is robbing you, don't buy from them and they'll go out of business. Encouraging people to take advantage of a company's mistake is different. If you knew the web master who made this error and had three young kids and needed this job to pay for medicine for his dying grandma would lose his job because he made a mistake that cost the company a few thousand dollars, would you still take advantage of the mistake?

If you accidentally listed your car in craigslist for $100 instead of $10,000, would you really want to be kept to that just coz someone picked up on the mistake. Doesn't matter if it happens to an individual or a multi-billion dollar company, the act is the same.

Okay, apologies to everyone for my self-righteous pontification. It's Monday.]]>Aug 13th 2007 5:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/
Ethics are what they are...I guess people never get over charged for a car with your belief? Do I think it's wrong that the Zune was $100...no. Reason, my company purchases PC's from Dell $200-$500 off the cost. Are we "robbing" the webmaster of his kids medicines then? Are we being unethical? Should we pay full price for the PC's and on the back end charge our customer's the difference? At buying almost 1000 PC's from them in the last 4 years....I hope we didn't put any body out on the street or cause a kid to die from not getting there "medicine"?

A) you prefer the iPod interface
B) you enjoy buying/have bought iTunes content
C) You realize the Zune software is spawned from the depths of hell.
D) if you really appreciate the ubiquity of Made for iPod accessories

I had an 80GB iPod for a good while, only to have it (along with about $1500 dollars of other tech shit) stolen earlier this year. I got an open box Zune for $145 and it was a good buy, I like it a lot. I have owned an mp3 player forever, starting with Creative players (used to own a 6GB monster Nomad that ran on four AAs), and the Zune is the best I have used yet, barring the iPod, which I find I like just as much, despite the fact that the scroll wheel is a bit wonky when I use it.]]>Aug 13th 2007 2:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/Aug 13th 2007 2:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/But the functionality is not on par with Zune!]]>Aug 13th 2007 8:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/Aug 13th 2007 9:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/Aug 13th 2007 10:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/13/dell-flub-nets-you-100-zune/not to mention i wouldn't want a 30gb zune for $100... maybe if it was the bigger one.
