iPods invade MS campus

The Microsoft campus in Redmond Washington is experiencing a surge of employees using iPods.

Microsoft managers are growing very frustrated by this, as about 80 percent of the Microsoft employees who own a digital music player actually own an iPod. In response to this the Windows Digital Media division general manager, David Fester, sent a memo to employees that stated, Òwindows supports some great alternative digital music players.Ó

This is a scary situation for Microsoft when its employees are not even interested in the Windows-technology based digital music player but rather its direct competitor.

Some workers have even been reported to switch the headphones they use in order to conceal what kind of digital music player they have.
