Walter Isaacson: In the end, Bill makes the Zune and Steve makes the iPod [Video]
by Justin Horn on Oct 26th, 2011 @ 12:05 amYes, the Zune is still the butt of jokes. I first noticed this trend way back in October of 2008, when NBC’s TV show Chuck joked about owning a Zune.
Now 3 years later Walter Isaacson, the author who wrote Steve Jobs biography, joins in on the fun. Isaacson, appearing on The Daily Show with John Stewart, highlights Steve Jobs’ more artistic and mystical style compared to Bill Gates’ brains and business sense.
