Shout out to the time #Microsoft invented a genuinely cool peer-to-peer song sharing feature for the #Zune

and then unironically, with a straight face, called it “squirting”

As in “hey [your name], squirt me that hot new song you like”

Continuing Microsoft’s long tradition, which lives to this day, of using a dart board of the worst possible words to name its products and features, like, 95% of the time

@chartier @jwisser The Zune HD screen was pretty great. But that brown tho…

@jackbrewster @jwisser I mean. At the time I think it looked awful too. Buuuuut

To give MS the rare feather in its cap, we *do* have tastefully designed brown gadgets and tools these days. One *could* argue, if they want, that the brown Zune may have been ahead of its time.

However, I do not want to argue that. 😆

@chartier @jackbrewster @jwisser it was nice to have colors other than white, silver, and black.
