There's some clock device in them that went haywire. They (the device) won't work until '09.
Epic FAIL @ Microsoft. |

QUOTE(divergent @ Dec 31 2008, 05:40 PM)  Are they new? Like just released today or something? That's weird. I'm glad Apple doesn't have these problems. The 30GB one is the oldest one, which came out in 2006. |

I love Microsoft, they make products that aren't worth the money, but yet they continue to make billions. How I would love to do the same.

To say the least, programmers were fired after this incident. I still <3 my zune, it's an 80 gig though so it wasn't frozen.

It was line 263 of the code.
QUOTE //Calculate current day of the week
dayofweek = GetDayOfWeek(days); year = ORIGINYEAR; while (days > 365) { if (IsLeapYear(year)) { if (days > 366) { days -= 366; year += 1; } } else { days -= 365; year += 1; } } |

Pretty much. Whoever wrote it didn't consider the extra time.

QUOTE(9001 @ Jan 2 2009, 11:26 PM) It was line 263 of the code. Wrong line. The offending line is actually the line with the while loop -- while days > 365 doesn't take leap years into account, so the loop goes forever -- hence why the Zunes just froze up. |

Crap, you're right. I saw "days >" and bolded the wrong line.
