Hooray for Mattel. They unveiled a new Barbie who is a computer engineer! They held a contest for people to vote on a new career for Barbie. Alas, girls voted for news anchor. Luckily, many women (and men) in tech fields put out a call to vote for computer engineer. We flooded the election and won the popular vote! So Mattel is going to make both. They seem to have gotten it right. Her t-shirt has binary code on it and something else that's hard to see. Let's hope it's a network topology drawing. She also has a bluetooth headset and smart phone. The pink laptop is cute. Let's hope it's a Mac!
Barbie doesn't look a day older than she did last year! Think Mattel made the smart decision with both career choices. Your synopsis was great. But what's hidden on the tee?
ReplyDeleteNah, it's not a mack but an eepc running Linux ;-) Judging from the wardrobe, she couldn't possibly afford an Apple computer.
