Unfortunately the &quot;hacker&quot; has spent too much time loading Linux, and not enough time learning to run a video camera, so the video is very poor to say the least. The question, though, is if this is a true hack, or a clever individual timing his button presses with cleverly created video playing on the Zune? The juror is still out, but I have my serious doubts about the legitimacy of this particular video.</p>
