Dear Microsoft

This is my gentle suggestion that you fuck off.

Thanks for setting my Zune up so that it would fry its memory after a fatal error and then not reprogram itself when hooked up to the computer, thus rendering it into a useless brick that can't even double as a paper weight.

NO love, and a lot of cussing.

Me.

(Yes, I know, it's Microsoft and I should've known better. Let me cry in peace, 'kay?)

PS to MS--You get half of a grudging point for making the computer software capable of re-downloading the free tracks I've been collecting since June so that I can at least burn them onto a CD before I might possibly have to delete the whole program, depending on what I get to replace the brick.

Still hate you, though.

And you've done all the drain-battery-and-resync stuff, right? I'm sure you have. That really bites!

Yep. I was already in the process of doing that anyway when I found out about the programming oopsie because my Zune had jammed on me before, and that's how I had fixed it before, too (minus the fatal error business). And I did it twice this time, just to make sure the first time when it refused to work wasn't just a fluke.

It wasn't.

Good thing all my Bon Jovi is on disk... ;)
