"Play with Zune"
For some reason, a lot of the Zune documentation is striking me as unintentionally but hilariously salacious. Under Play with Zune, I found the following list of options that made me laugh out loud, particularly the differential between the first and second options:
Even the direct URL is a giggle: "http://www.zune.net/en-us/support/howto/play/default.htm". As if Coming Zune weren't enough!
Edited to add: David Battino points out this frenzied installation shot [via BoingBoing]:

Edited further to add that this disturbing trend doesn't seem to just be limited to Microsoft. Check out this early Zune review "Hands on the Zune":
Compared to my fourth-generation iPod, the Zune was lighter. The top of the Zune had a clear glass layer while the exterior had a tactile feel to it, nothing like the hard metal and plastic of the iPod devices. The 'skin' of the Zune was a 'rubberized' material that had a smooth seductive feel to it. I found myself unable to stop stroking the device, so much that the demo assistant asked me to put it down.
Edited even further to add: This one isn't even safe for work. Yikes!
Oh heavens. This is just getting silly. Now this has shown up. In theory this one is safe for work, but anyone wandering by will probably (and correctly) get the absolute wrong idea.
