Zune Floor Mat == Coaster
So if you get the "Zune Car Pack", then it comes with a cool little floor mat, which can be used as a nice no-slip pad to place your Zune while driving. Unfortunately for me, there wasn't a good place to put the mat in my vehicle. Not wanting to waste such a nice piece of sticky rubber, I threw out the old piece of paper which was acting as my office's beverage coaster, and started using the Zune floor mat.
I bet that wasn't one of their test cases.

His initial responsibilities covered various pieces of the low level operating system (file systems, peripheral communication, etc.). Shortly after the Xbox game console launched in 2001, Josh took over as lead of the Kernel Test Team and remained in charge of validating the core operating system throughout the development and launch of the Xbox 360. Then, in the spring of 2007, Josh joined the Zune group as a Test Architect, where he helped solve various problems across the four main test teams in the organization. After a year in Zune, Josh went back to Xbox to help solve some more hard problems there.
