Microsoft, Your Booth Babes Make Me Feel Awkward

October 22nd, 2007, 10 Comments »

I was reading the local paper today, and perused an article about Microsoft targeting smaller companies in their forthcoming acquisitions. The article featured a photo of a couple Microsoft ‘booth babes’ at a tradeshow, showing off some peripherals (copped from Yahoo! News):

Aren't They a Little Young?

Maybe I’m just getting old, but don’t these young women look about twelve years old? Particularly the one on the right, who has ‘Hardware’ emblazoned on her crop-top. Of course, there’s a big market for webcams among paedophiles, so maybe it’s just good marketing.

It has nothing to do with so-young-it’s-creepy girls, I’ve always really liked Microsoft’s keyboards. I pretty much buy them exclusively.
