Honestly what the f **k is a zune.
I see that you dont own a xbox360 then.
I have this software install on the pc to link up to my xbox360 so I can play movies and mp3 from my home server

NO IT WON'T !

Seriously now, it's like i would have such a big EGO, as a BIG BMW enthusiast to not allow my children to drive whatever they want. (almost...i'm pretty sure i would say NO to an Ariel Atom).

This is BS Bill! You've got too much of an EGO and pride and too small of achievements.

PS: Also i read the E60.net forums several times from my iPhone. Worked like a charm. I even posted several times with smilies.

Reminds me of that Family Guy episode where Mr. Pewterschmidt has Bill Gates over for a party, then teases him with an i-pod!

It not how many crap they own. It all about the trend, they don't care what it is as long as they have and look good at school
I bet when you were a kid, you what'd something very badly that most of the kids have in the trend and you did not get 1.

They can pull up to class in a Ferrari though, so it's all good.

Ferrari is easy to get but not the iphone

It's good for the kids to go without - it builds character.

I would give up my ipod if Bill would adopt me.
