Zuneageddon

El Zune, la versió Microsoft de l'iPod s'ha suicidat de forma sincronitzada arreu del món. Frustració? Sentit d'inferioritat respecte els aparells d'Apple? I si només és l'inici de suicidis massius d'electrodomèstics? Em recorda a alguna història de Stephen King..

De wikipedia:

At approximately midnight Pacific Standard Time, on the morning of 2008-12-31, many, potentially all,[47] first generation Zune 30s were reported to have automatically rebooted and frozen during the boot process.[48][49] The event is being called "Y2K9," "Z2K," "Z2K9" and "Zuneageddon" by many bloggers.

Microsoft has stated that the problem is with the internal clock driver and the way the device handles a leap year; with an intermediate official "fix" to drain the device battery and then recharge after 12 noon GMT on the 2009-01-01.

En aquest home (l'unic que té un Zune) li va donar un infart quant se li va morir l'aparell

Pensava que el perill era l'efecte 2000, no pas el 2009!

FAIL!

La solució és bastant cutre també...
