Google thinks Zune is a typo

Hehe, thought this was a funny statement. If anything to brighten your day or bring a chuckle, this would do it:

When you search for "zune," Google News suspects a typo. "Did you mean: zone?" Google News suggests.

This isn't the result of any animus against Microsoft on Google's part. "A query refinement is triggered automatically through our search algorithms," explains a Google spokesperson. "It's based on aggregate search data."

Ok, now granted the article this quote was taken from was written two years ago, when the zune was just coming out, but it still deserves a chuckle.
