This one is even better:

Raise your hand if you have iTunes ...

Raise your hand if you have a FireWire port ...

Raise your hand if you have both ...

Raise your hand if you have $400 to spend on a cute Apple device ...

There is Apple's market. Pretty slim, eh? I don't see many sales in the future of iPod.

Those were legitimate criticisms at the time. I certainly would have never got one if they hadn't started using USB.

The Picwing is also not as much of a breakthrough as the iPod was, to make an obvious point.

Yeah, a music player that plays music. Novel idea. What's the breakthrough about it?
