Skeuomorph →
bestofwikipedia:
A skeuomorph or skeuomorphism is a derivative object which retains ornamental design cues to a structure that was necessary in the original. Skeuomorphs may be deliberately employed to make the new look comfortably old and familiar, such as copper cladding on zinc pennies or computer printed postage with circular town name and cancellation lines.

This is hilarious. A software bug made every 30GB-model Zune crash last night at 2 AM, and they won’t reboot properly.
edit: I’m still laughing about this a half-hour later. The various comments everywhere are hilarious.
I’ve always worried about this happening to Linux or the mobile network. Or cars.
