Regarding that picture making its way across the internet, the one at Microsoft's invitation-only Mobius event where Big Redmond discusses their secret plans for all things Microsoft and Zune, and heartless bloggers show up with Apple Mac hardware...

Yes, that's our very own eiDieter Bohn hard left in the pic, and he assures us, even as we tease him, the machine mix was close to 50/50 and many were running Windows virtual machines (they needed to sync their Zunes, after all!)

(And no, there were no reports of Ballmer snatching iPhones at this event, sadly no reports of iPhones at the event at all...).
