Shots of the Seattle Launch
"A Zune is born this day. This morning, Bill Gates bounced on stage, in Zune jacket and all, and introduced Zune to a crowd of enthusiastic Seattleites. Bill was preceded on stage by Secret Machines, who played a short set. We had breakfast with the Zune team, along with some lucky contest winners, and with Ben, Brandon, and Josh from Secret Machines."
 It looked pretty cold in Seattle yesterday, but that wasn't going to stop the people gathering to see what Bill Gates and the Zune team had up their sleeves. Harvey from Zunerama snapped a few shots of the action. Head over there for a look.

Spoken like a true Australian. 40s and 50s is pretty typical of most of the northern US this time of year. Trust me, that's not cold.

Darius isn't over 50. And not to New Yorkers, it ain't. I know plenty of 50-year-olds who have found the weather here as of late surprisingly warm.

Today's high is 20C. That's unseasonably warm. Most people have been talking about it, and a number of people have been complaining that this isn't November weather and how they're hot in their coats, etc. (November does return tomorrow and this weekend, with highs around 12-13C. Monday's highs will be around 9C.)
