Default Apple Products Banned From Gates Household

http://blogs.zdnet.com/Apple/?p=3206

"When the topic of their children comes up, Mrs. Gates admits that world richest parents have banned iPods from their home, giving this irresistible quote: "There are very few things that are on the banned list in our household. But iPods and iPhones are two things we don’t get for our kids." When pressed on the topic Mrs. Gates admits that she’s been tempted by the iPhone, saying: "Every now and then I look at my friends and say ‘Ooh, I wouldn’t mind having that iPhone’."

I guess I wouldn't want a competitor's massive success rubbed in my face either.  This shouldn't be too surprising, though.  Remember the iPod Amnesty Bin that was stationed inside Zune HQ?
