16 bit? Back when we was kids we only got a single bit on Christmas, as a treat
And we had to share it!
It’s 2007, I work for a consulting firm specializing in Microsoft technologies and the Sharepoint work just keeps rolling in. Also, this Silverlight thing is going to really take off, so I’d better git gud at it

I had a manager who was looking to develop apps on Windows Mobile 6.5 and took my day one purchase of an iPhone as a personal affront to be mocked every chance he got.

in general part of the funny thing about the zune was that it was perfectly competent, perhaps even more so than the competition, but it was way late and everything associated with it was weird.
