Nope! They stop and stare, and laugh at the prehistoric thing that is the iPod Touch!

People actually laugh at my ZuneHD. Typical conversation:

"Hey, what's that?"

"My ZuneHD".

"Zune? LOSER! I have an iPod touch!"

"Hm, does that touch have HD Radio?"

"No, but it has APPS!"

"Well, Microsoft is coming out with an app store soon. In the meantime, how's your music quality?"

*tests music quality, then mine*

"Well, mine is... okay..."

/me and walk away.

No one ever laughs at my toys because I live in the real world, not Interwebz Douchebagia.

Actually people view it as a curiosity.
"What's that?"
"A Zune"
"Really, You Have that?(as in wonder?), cool let me see!"
I usually don't say iPods suck though. As, I will probably get negrepped for this, the Zune isn't a whole lot better than the iPod.(there is things that make it a win)

People think it's either a phone or a really crappy device. But I've gotten a bunch of compliments on my ZuneHD compared to my 30 gig.

People don't laugh at you and your Zune when you threaten to kill them in their sleep.

The only problem I find is that other people just simply think they're too complicated. They need big simple buttons in order to compete with the iPod. Some of my more intelligent friends actually bought one after I showed them. This was back with the Zune 120.

Still trying to convince MS to let me upgrade. I got the 120 the day before the Zune HD announcement .

Yeah good luck with that...

A kid in my Calculus class pulled out his 3rd gen iPod Nano and was using the camera. He asked if I had an iPod and I said I had the Zune HD, and he said "Tisk, tisk...". I didn't try to argue with him because I'm not 12. But I have a feeling he's never seen the Zune HD, he's just thinking of the Zune30 or 80/120 which everyone laughs at.

His loss.
