Thank G_d Micro$oft does not build cars. :) Bosses everywhere would swiftly tire of the “sorry I’m late - the damn car just kept rebooting every time I tried to leave the driveway...” from employees.

Leave it to Bill Gates to make end users bend over and squeal at the most unexpected times. And no, I don't own a Mac.

if it flashes such a message, it’s got to be malware. yes, of course, like “Bush” and global warming, that’s Gates’ fault.

Great.... just read this and turned my Zune on, frozen on the welcome screen. Dang it!

They work now. It was 12:00 gmt that caused it. A 24hr outage.

From Engadget.com:

“..Microsoft has finally acknowledged their boo-boo and explains it thusly: There is a bug in the internal clock driver causing the device to choke on the last day of a leap year...”

So I suppose we just wait until tomorrow for it to fix itself.

And seriously, there is NO Apple fan that could possible make a snide remark about this seeing all of the drama they have to go through with Jobs almost on a daily basis.

Another Microshaft clusterfarkle.

No Windows application has ever before violated Microsoft’s own UI standards as blatently as Zune software. It is a true crime against all that is good and reasonable.

I am working on the Y10K problem, where we get 5 digits in the year.
Send $1 to me and I will make sure your computer will handle the date changeover. Promise, I will give you your money back if it doesn’t work.

I read the story at Yahoo! News and thought for sure it was some sort of hoax, so I turned on my 30 GB Zune at 10:30 p.m. (Pacific time) and it froze.

I love my Zune. I will never buy anything from Apple - Go ahead and flame away Mac Addicts.

The fix is in...

I am letting my Zune’s battery drain rather than cracking it open (voiding the warranty) to temorarily disconnect the battery jack.

It’s not a bug, it’s a feature.

Hmmm....and my iPod’s working just fine. ;-)
