Innovation? Microsoft?

I'm sorry, but I have difficulty fitting the words "innovation" and "Microsoft" into a sentence - actually, a negative or interrogative sentence would be easy, but not an affirmative one.

When has MS ever innovated?

Take the Zune for example. It's basically a remodeled Toshiba Gigabeat with the innards of an older iPod.

Well, the name is an innovation, I suppose.

Shame that in Canadian French slang "Zune" is a word for "female genitals."
