Who Dresses Better?

I'm a Mac guy. I like my Apple computers, and my iPod, the iTMS, OSX, iMovie, iPhoto and most of the other Apple apps. That's pretty much all things Apple.

I like Steve Jobs. He has "cool" - much like his company's products.

Steve seems to own no clothing besides black turtlenecks and jeans. But hey, he is Mr. Apple, so who cares about looking suave or wearing a tie? Not needed, people. I make cool computing hardware and software.

Last week, at the big Mac event, Jobs made an incredible fashion statement. Unfortunately, it came at the expense of a new Apple partner, Intel.

The new Mac-tel computers look nice, just as I'd expect from Apple. But in the joint presentation during which the new machines were unveiled, a most unusual thing happened. Someone had convinced Intel that the "high tech look" was needed for this announcement.

So, Steve looked...well, like Steve does. Black. Denim. Apple Chic.

The computers were typically Apple cool. Clean, neat, but not clunky or unapproachable. Great engineering, as usual.

Unfortunately, the Intel CEO did not look so good.

How in the world did Jobs and all that good looking hardware get joined by a man in a moon suit?


Yikes!

Humiliating.

Earth to Intel PR/Marketing: Get up to speed, and please, protect your CEO from looking so out of place next time.

Ouch.
