(AP) - Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates holds up a Zune at launch party for the new music player at Westlake Park in downtown Seattle, Monday, Nov. 13, 2006. Few have accused Microsoft of being first to the market. But plenty have learned the hard way that the company can be very good at sneaking up from behind. That's the tack Microsoft Corp. is hoping to take with entertainment. The software maker has invested years of effort and billions of dollars in entertainment endeavors ranging from TV technology to video game consoles. Its latest, the Zune portable music player and service, debuts Tuesday and marks an attempt to take on Apple Computer Inc.'s iPod and iTunes. (AP Photo/John Froschauer)
