101 Uses for a Dead Zune
Steve McCabe - 11:00am Dec 15, 2006 PST[Just had to break this into a new thread... :-) -Adam]
Giving someone a Zune... is the equivalent of giving them a lump of coal :)
Not at all. I can think of uses for a lump of coal.
Ho, ho, &c....

I'm already hearing Zune used as a verb, adverb or noun, used as a
dis. Some examples:
Did you see that Zune blah-blah was out with last night?
So-And-So came up with more of his usual Zunes in today's meeting.
I wonder if it will become a permanent vocabulary word...

And in Scotland it is a traditional present that is given when you
first foot someone at Hogmanay.

Unlike a Zune it is actually safe to burn on a fire.
