From Sigurd:

Noted that Mic­ro­soft is coming out with a soft­ware update to make the Zune com­pa­ti­ble with Vista. Good for them.
The patch is 22 Mb.
Thin­gamy is 14 Mb.
With Zune you can play some music, with Thin­gamy you can run Mic­ro­soft.
Are they paid by line-of-code in Seattle?

[Disc­lo­sure: I have a small stake in Thingamy.]

    Like the car­toon Hugh — not as much as that other one though ;)
    How come we never tal­ked about Thin­gamy? We should chat over some Stormhoek soon to see where this fits with stuff like Offi­ce­Live
    have a chi­lled one in Lon­don. See you in 07!

    I dunno, Steve, I go quiet on Thin­gamy on occa­sion. I guess you caught me during a quiet phase.…
    Like­wise, see you in ’07…
