The Brains Balloons Zune mystery solved Print E-mail
Written by Kostas Tzounopoulos

A Limited Edition Microsoft-interns ZuneIt was coming from the unknown, it was a riddle, it was a Black (looking like Blue?) Zune with an image of a dinosaur-something holding some Brains Balloons(!) But now its only a common Zune thanks to Mr. IWantAPinkZune who destroyed all the mystery about it. EDIT: This a geniusaurus, and definitely a Black Zune...

 

 

 

 

 

 

This was discovered some time ago by a forum moderator of MSZune.nl, a Zune Community site from Netherlands. IWantAPinkZune just found this logo belongs to Microsoft's Internship page. Here is a blog post from the guy who won this Zune.

Here is the same logo from the Microsoft Internship page (for the non-believers): Microsoft Internships

 

The Microsoft Interns Special Edition Zune

And a photo of J Allard on that event. I had seen it before, but I had forgotten the logo you can almost see at the right of the photo. We would have solved the mystery weeks ago :) 

J Allard - Hey, Genius Microsoft Internships 2007

EDIT (October 2nd): Anatifero.us calls this logo a Geniusaurus, (sounds good!), and points as to hey-genius.com . His Zune with the Asian Characters Software-only hack to display Chinese normally:

Yes I've written before about this Zune Limited Edition: Brain Balloons. What IWAPZ found is the event that this logo comes from.
