That was my first thought too. I thought a member of the band The Zunes (something loke The Zutons) played suicide and he was called like Dee Dee Zune or something. But of you follow the link you'll see it's an MP3 player.

A Zune is Microsoft's Ipod.

I blame the skinny dude in the Apple commercials.  Beneath the surface, he's a crafty one, aye matey......

Gates has been trying to build a Mac since the beginning - and he still can't do it.

He's also Drew Barrymore's new boyfriend.   ;)

I don't think he has, and I'm thankful for it.  :P

Still, this Zune thing is weird. Leap year madness.

Turns out it was a leap year issue and everything should be okay today. Possibly Microsoft's fault, possibly the manufacturer's fault (Toshiba). Either way, this story has the understatement of the day: "The incident is unlikely to help Microsoft gain ground against Apple's iPod.." No sh**, Sherlock.

Is a computer related joke allowed here?

Bill Gates enlists the services of a hooker. After they are done, he compliments her: "Now I know why they call you 'Hot Betty'!" The hooker, unmoved: "Yes, and your name as 'Mr Microsoft' fits well too."

When you use the men's room, don't eat the mints - they're imported.
