What kind of CEO goes on record calling another man a drunk? Apparently Jobs asked Jim Goldman if Robbie Bach was drunk when told that he was optimistic about the Zune.

I told Jobs that I had sat down with Microsoft’s Robbie Bach last week at the Consumer Electronics Show.  I mentioned that Bach was particularly optimistic about the new Zune, that it was now a worthy alternative to Apple’s iPod.

Asked Jobs:  “Was he inebriated?  Do you even know anyone who owns a Zune?”  Touched a nerve, I suppose.  Watch the video we loaded.  It’s a great exchange.
