Media MYSTERY MODEL Roils Computer Geekdom.

Ha ! Never used the word Geekdom before. Ah ! the tribulations of short titles.

"Who is this model ?"

Or more accurately, WHAT is she rocks computeroids big time.

Seems she was 'picked up' by both M$ and Linux to model for it.
And this was done royalty-free (Ha! M$ uses royalty-free model ) first my M$Net, and later for six months by LinuxWorld Conference & Expo held a few weeks ago in NYC.

QUESTION: Is she a Linux-user or a MS-user ?

"Those shifty-eys--notice how she's steadily avoiding looking at the camara---seem to.. imply an MS-chick "--Linus Torvalds

Others are not so sure. She has the premier 'LinuxWorld & Expo' model for half a year. Couldn't have done that unless she said "Linux" to her Penguin viewers.

Ah ! But one wise wit remarked, "I think she's a Mac user."

Of course, one could always dismiss this brahooha as simply "mail chauvenism"--but I suspect this burning question of "Is she or isn't she? Only her OS knows for sure" will linger and smolder and and flame two already divided communities.

I say we put an end to right here an now !

Inter--OS amity deserves no less.

DOOOOOG

given the complete disarray of her surroundings, the fact that she's sitting on the floor, and is smiling leads me to believe she doesn't even know what a computer is.

So how come Linux World Conference & Expo chose her as its err...Cover Girl ?

Hmmm..nobody in the "WIRED NEWS/Supermdel " Article saw fit to even whisper this but..
could she be a Member of the elite Design Team of the Berkeley Project ? [Click "MS-chick"]

Bringing you Unix and BSD and other good things even I can't spell.

I say the seeming disarray is a sign of conterplating higher things than the floor. Maybe the ceiling...

Try flashing the picture for a second and free-associating.

You say you naturally look at things for a second and free-associate ? Hmmm...

DOOOOOOG
Bringing you the Other Side of the News.
