The wide range of microsoft products is unproductive and dangerous. Make your OS cheaper and better, kill Linux and persist as the market leader!

I was a bit disappointed with the specs - they barely match the 30GB iPod, and the Zune isn't cheaper, so what's the point? I doubt the online store can come close to ITMS, so I'm not really seeing a reason to buy a Zune. But Apple probably is getting a little lazy, so I agree that the competition will be a good thing. I'm hoping for a new iPod version before Christmas. Perhaps Apple will announce one the day after Thanksgiving. They had a bunch of press stuff in Seattle, though I didn’t see any of it firsthand.
