@Batye true, and you can pay a premium price for keyboards and cases made out of wood. see http://usa.oreeartisans.com/. Also some people pay to have traditional typewriters work with their computers as per this Etsy item.

I can't say I understand why some people think vacuum tube amps are better, but I'm impressed at the efforts expended to keeping vac tubes alive and functional. I suppose when the alien EMPs knock out all of our electronics, those audiophiles might still be able to listen to their favorite tunes while civilization crumbles....

Was the zune significantly cheaper back in the day? I forget the second place MP3 player maker.. Creative?
Maybe your Zune will be a collector's item someday. Too bad you didn't leave it in its original packaging..
