His most notorious big lie was that the Apple computer is not a PC (personal computer). It was nothing but marketing BS to make the Apple seem like something special.

Out of fairness, the Creative Zen, an iPod copycat, had the same inexcusable flaw. The genius of Steve Jobs began - and ended - with the idea of using computing power to make it easier to use. Given his marketing and planned failure due to battery death, he was a jerk otherwise. Don’t forget the iPod has a battery that can’t be changed by the user when it dies for good.

It doesn't look as good as the ipod but I really like it for 2 reasons. 1. The ear buds sound quality is just awesome. I tried Apple's headphones at the local best buy and seriously the sound quality is bad. 2. I can sync it with Windows Media Player OR copy music to it by myself which is very good. Seriously guys try out the Sony players, i think you'll like the sound quality. I got a Sony 8 GB mp3 player. It doesn’t look as good as the ipod but I really like it for 2 reasons. 1.

I was pleased to discover this had been fixed, along with my other primary complaint from early iTunes (that it rearranged your entire freakin' hard drive if you organized your music by any means other than a Steve Jobs Approved system. Even today, it still won't let you use a filename (i.e. the one universal constant across all media formats) to categorize anything in its library, though -- and FSM help you if you have any non-MP3 files (i.e. the superior Ogg Vorbis format).). That said, I still refuse to use it. During the brief window I was forced to use it in (before there was a successful untethered jailbreak for my system - and even then, you need iTunes to unlock the device and transfer the altered firmware to it), it randomly reset my date/time every single time it synced. This has apparently been a problem with iTunes for over two years, and it only shows up if you do the responsible thing and save power by hibernating your computer overnight.
