I was in a bar today and there was a gorgeous blonde drawing looks from just about every guy in there. Being the maladjusted geek that I am, I thought, "Let me compare thee to an Apple iPad."
She was indeed beautiful to look at, shapely and desirable. All the guys wanted her and could imagine running their fingers across her sunscreen. But she belonged to someone else... lucky sod.
However, when she spoke she was self-obsessed, shrill and shallow. Judging by the way she was dressed, she was probably high maintenance, too, needing all sorts of extra bits and pieces.
An object of desire, sexy and a source of envy, but ultimately unsatisfying.
An e-Luddite's view of the daily changes in information and communications technology (ICT). Apple, Microsoft, Intel, Oracle, HP, IBM, security companies - nobody escapes.
