iPod has become all the rage among Microsoft employees

Irony Feb. 2nd 2005
Call it karma, or fate's fickle hand. (I call it friggin hilarious) But apparently the iPod has become all the rage among Microsoft employees.

The company who arguably built their empire by stealing the intellectual property of Steve Jobs. Is now having to come to grips with the fact that they have been squarely beaten to the punch by the true innovators at Apple. And with even cheaper versions of the iPod coming to market, a genius strategy is beginning to take root in the American psyche.

PC users, who have gotten a taste of the Apple experience by using iPods, now have the perfect transitional platform to move to a Mac. The Mac Mini is a stroke of brilliance. Take everything good about a Macintosh; put it in a sleek, appealing, & affordable package. Toss in the fact that its compatible with all your existing PC components, and you have a very compelling argument for defecting to the Apple side of the fence.

I seriously doubt that this will ever mean Mac's will cut into the core PC market of cheap, mass produced business machines, that have made Bill his billions. But for the first time I see a light at the end of the tunnel...
