The Ladies Of Computex, Part One

by - source: Tom's Hardware US

Some of you guys have been asking for booth babes over the last couple of days and we figured the only decent thing to do would be honor that request.

With that in mind we sent our smoothest Italian editor out onto the show floor to grab some pictures of the finest booth babes at Computex, and here’s what our good friend Andrea came back with (we’re still waiting to find out if he used the old, “Ciao, Bella!” line).

Pardon me if I don’t caption all of these. I’m a woman and I don’t feel that’s my place, but feel free to comment.

Without further ado, here are the girls from the Arctic Cooling booth and AMD’s women, along with a random chick in a red dress. Click the pictures to enlarge (no pun intended):

That's all for now but we're told more pictures are on the way. Stay tuned for part two, which we'll be posting in a couple of hours, and parts three and four, which we'll be posting just in time for the weekend!

I ran event marketing at sporting events for years. We used models that had appeared in maxim & FHM, very, very pretty girls. After everything was set up we (guys in our late 20's early 30's) would just stand in the back and laugh watching full grown men make complete asses of themselves hitting on 20 year girls.

You know, I think Ms McEntegart must feel just a bit awkward writing this piece...

I decided to take charge of this one, along with help from Marcus. He'll be doing parts 2 and 3 I think. :)

Never know unless you try, but I think the girls that are at these events are not going to respond for multiple reasons... It may be their career and it would seem unprofessional since they are working. But yes 28 y/o's going for 20 y/o's is a bit of a stretch. I think about 5 years younger is OK when your in your late 20's.

BAAA last gf was 19 when I was 31. Most guys just stammer etc. Walk up with some confidence and a good joke. Goes along way.

Boobs sell... but who's buying?

Doesn't anyone at all think it's awkward that Jane's presenting this? Or is this part of the process about the male pscyhe that makes this article more appealing to the general populace?

Hmmm...

Everyone else was busy and the pictures were just sitting there. Nothing "awkward" about it.

According to xkcd, the standard creepiness rule is:

Never date a person who is younger than (your age in years/2) + 7 years.

In Ireland, we call it the Gandhi rule for some weird reason.

Hey where are the Intel and nVidia girls, I love the discussion the comparison of the companies girls allways brings.

I think I'll leave the prancing around in short dresses to the pros.

I think AMD finally won the battle.

What does Intel have to put up?

haha nice, well it's nice to see it on an equation. So i was pretty close according to the equation.
But yeah I'm 28 and I don't think I could see myself dating someone younger then 23. It just seems like something that would not work out. But yeah (18/2)+7=21 so that's pretty close. I gotta try this thing on my friend who is dating a 19y/o he is younger then me but still we make fun of him all the time.

come on now... if someone looks like this they don't need to know a damn thing. However i'm sure there are a few smart ones that are more of a sales type.

Least the women in this one look older then the ones in part 2. Part 2 ones made me feel like I should be jailed :S

Jane, I wouldn't have minded if you wrote captions ;)
