Balmer was hardly phased by this gruesome site out on the lawn all around him.

Then again, he'd seen Bill running around the office in his Spock costume ... horror was nothing new to this man.

Meanwhile, a sweat soaked Steve Balmers watched with fear in his eyes as the iPod in his left hand became suddenly red-hot while at the same time the Zune in his right hand was glowing bright pink....
