Microsoft is apparently preparing to battle the iPod. Not satisfied with decimating the Macintosh with undercut pricing (and, admittedly, a more sound distribution model) Microsoft wants the iPod to have a more Apple-like 5 percent market-share. But will it work? Yes, and no.Yes, because there is a significant percentage of people out there who simply don't appreciate the stunning combination of design, technology, and usability that is Apple. These people appreciate a cheap price, languish in the familiarity of all things Microsoft, and don't appreciate good design.

This guy is right. Hell, if Apple would sell unleaded gasoline in a "stunning"ly designed crystal decantor, I would be in line to pay $27 per gallon.
Hillarious.
