They're called periods. It's the key with the little dot on it two keys to the right of the "m" key. They are used to signify the end of a sentence. English also likes to use upper-case letters. This can be achieved by holding down the "Shift" key while pressing a letter. I understand that since what you said had no periods you may have gotten confused where you would use an upper-case letter, but things such as "Microsoft" are generally upper-case. This should help you in your rebuttles.]]>Aug 26th 2009 8:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/26/september-9-ipod-event-gets-some-corroboration-from-appleinsider/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/26/september-9-ipod-event-gets-some-corroboration-from-appleinsider/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0UjU0rtavE)... Apple will then try to include a vibrant OLED screen, which you guys obviously won't see as a "me too" (in the infamous words of Jubei) because it's awesome and Apple is doing it, but rather, you will more than likely try to say Apple had been planning it from the start and Microsoft simply caught wind of it and copied them. Microsoft hasn't stolen shit- they've merely put out competing products that often do their jobs better than the competition.]]>Aug 26th 2009 10:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/26/september-9-ipod-event-gets-some-corroboration-from-appleinsider/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/26/september-9-ipod-event-gets-some-corroboration-from-appleinsider/

I think they will have a 64GB touch, if they don't there's going to be a lot of backlash and a lot of Zune switchers. I wouldn't expect too much else though, Apple shot themselves in the foot by tying the iPhone and the iTouch together with the App store. The iPod touch is forever stuck being the same as the iPhone so that the two can run the same apps side by side.]]>Aug 26th 2009 6:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/26/september-9-ipod-event-gets-some-corroboration-from-appleinsider/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/26/september-9-ipod-event-gets-some-corroboration-from-appleinsider/Aug 26th 2009 4:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/26/september-9-ipod-event-gets-some-corroboration-from-appleinsider/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/26/september-9-ipod-event-gets-some-corroboration-from-appleinsider/Aug 26th 2009 4:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/26/september-9-ipod-event-gets-some-corroboration-from-appleinsider/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/26/september-9-ipod-event-gets-some-corroboration-from-appleinsider/

Should we say the same thing about Macs? They have about as much market share among PCs as the Zune has among PMPs.

There's a difference between "trolling" and being what I call a "truth-jerk."
Paul Chapel is a troll - clear as day.
I just happen to say what usually becomes the truth (eventually.)
I'll admit, I've had my fun at the expense of MSFT (who hasn't), but the reality is that much like an episode of BSG, "all this has happened before and will happen again"..
I applaud the Zune team for trying something new... but c'mon, they'll market it wrong, they'll stop supporting it, or they'll not sell enough and cease production.
Refer to quote above.
