Jobs Provides Quote of The Day for Zune Haters

[patrickj]

Was he inebriated? Do you even know anyone who owns a Zune?"

Steve Jobs' reply when told by a CNBC reporter that Robbie Bach (head of MS division in charge of Zune) had said that he: was particularly optimistic about the new Zune, that it was now a worthy alternative to Apple's iPod.

[psylichon]

Wow, old Steve-o needs to watch it with the ****iness.

No one is invincible, even in their best year ever.

[psylichon]

...
























But yeah, he's completely right on this one...

[Jhors2]

Hey, Apple's stock is still goin up regardless of how the market is doing as a whole, I guess he has something to be ****y about. He better be careful though, that is gonna get him in trouble one of these days.

[patrickj]

He also savaged the Amazon Kindle this week, saying it's doomed because nobody reads anymore ...

[Jhors2]

Steve Jobs > You

[psylichon]

Well again, he's picking his battles wisely this week (though he's wrong in theory... Kindle will die because it's a unitasking turd)

but he should just be careful is all I'm sayin'. And he better add a killer Ebook reader for free in the next update with dem wurdz!

Kindle is ugly as sin as well. Ebook reader would be very cool ...

A girl at my school has a Zune. Last week she got an iPod Touch, and she literally threw the Zune on the pavement outside of the school.

she coulda donated it to charity. well.... maybe not. that's like when it was time for the food drive at school and my mom sent me with all our spinach and beets. :S

[IphoneTony]

I dont know anyone that has a zune. He is right? I do know of 2 other people that have an iphone... and know of others that want to buy the ipod touch

[Khris]

here's a law,
you=wrong

Seinfeld=FTW

Lost=dumb

The Office=KING

[Hayesimus]

Yeah. there's no way the office trumps lost. the office isn't a CULT hit. its a hit but not a CULT hit. that's what lost is lol. does the office have action figures? or anything like that?

[kokogirl]

The Office=KING

Woah there-LOST is not dumb. Fightin' words .

[iamtko]

i think it's funny that there are action figures since practically no kids watch that show. even they think it is far-fetched and impossibly unrealistic..

oh and by the way,

so then you are saying you are interested in shows that only children can comprehend and follow. Perhaps you'd be interested in Scooby-Doo. Of course, it is rather far fetched that its always some old man in a mask. And not some murderous drifter. I mean really, how many times are they gonna solve the mystery. They shoulda been on the 6 o'clock news decades ago...

[The Apple]

I'll give you a shiney Stanley nickel to admit that Lost is a good show. Unrealistic........yes, but I have yet to see alot of realistic aspects to The Office. The only realistic thing about the show is Dwight being a beet farmer.

[psylichon]

Why the heck are we arguing what's better: The Office or Lost? Could there be two more different types of show?

... and in a thread about Zunes. :tounge:

- John

[The Apple]

We were just trying to prove a point that both of those shows are better than a Zune.

[KNK]

... and in a thread about Zunes. :tounge:

- John
Well John, I have not chimed in on this Zune thing, but I just don't get it, I saw them at circuit city the other, and the screen is tiny, looks like they are several generations behind.:gasp:

Got my asbestos suit on so flame away.:2cool:

Ah this is all about LOST and OFFICE, lets talk about C-SPAN.....:angry:

And as PC says in the Mac vs. PC commercials:
'I just got my Zune today! It's so beautiful.. brown..' :tounge:

- John

[Ramesh]

Hey! I'm brown! (True Story)

:D

I know somone that bought a zune - from woot.com for like 70 bucks.

[The Apple]

:D

Is that considered getting ripped off?

[Ramesh]

well, it's bout $69 more than I'd pay for a zune.

[The Apple]

well, it's bout $69 more than I'd pay for a zune.

Agreed!!!!!!!!!!!

well, if Steve says nobody reads anymore, then by god I don't read anymore. :D

[Hayesimus]

i didn't even read this thread after he said that...

[patrickj]

i didn't even read this thread after he said that...

A lot of folks have said they think his Kindle / nobody reads comments are a clue that he'll be bringing us an ebook reader type device soon - citing past history of him dissing video on media players and then bringing it to the iPod etc ....

[fury]

He's been dissing tablet PCs for a while and still hasn't come out with something to compete with them.
