Techno-idiots (Part 3)

As some of you may know I do work involving IT Security for a living. To make my life easy I often use BackTrack .

Zune is a product, an in-animate object it can not possibly purchase anything. How could someone claim to be such a fan of Apple's iPod (see her other comments) and have NFC that Zune is a Microsoft product meant to compete with Apple's iPod.
