  • Intel Developer Forum, Day One: Intel Thinks Small
    This year’s Intel Developer Forum conference seems more notable for secondary technologies and what’s absent than about what’s being announced. Or, at least, that’s how it seems. On the other hand, there has been an intense focus on all things small. Read More

Is A-Data a legitimate company after all? Judging by those costumes... no. Fluffy skirts... WTF were they thinking?

Sorry Intel, AMD won.

They should wear more form-fitting clothes. I'm feeling a little ripped off.

Are those A-Data girls wearing a transparent part with the logo on it, or is it a tattoo? :S

AC had better girls in part one... although one of them had slightly fat legs, and they were all probably feeling very exposed :lol:

Babes? They look like school girls. Maybe those Asian girls just age really well. Bring out the grandmas! :D

the A-Data girls are cute, but I'll bet their "memory" is only average.
And what's the deal with everyone wearing blue and white?

I'm not sure what cute Oriental girls have to do with hardware.

Looks more like software to me :-P .

Don't ever expect booth girls to ever know 1 single thing about the product, they are just a paid prop. I went to a linux convention talked to some, might as well just put a life sized barbie doll on display instead lol.



Well what do you expect? They make a living off of their good looks. I'm sure that there are a good amount of them that actually are tech people that would know about the products, but the majority of them have no idea, nor should they be required to know. Their job entails standing around, looking good, and attracting men. In no way, shape, or form does that mean that they should know about the product that they most likely don't care about, that's what the reps at the booth are for.

Not entirely, the girls hired for Computex Taipei are required to memorize all kinds of specifications for the products they advertise. Most of the time, they give the presentations as well. I wouldn't know about a linux convention...

Do you really care what they know, so long as they know their own phone number and are willing to give it to you?

Who wants a girl that can explain macro-op fusion and has a 486 processor die key chain? Well, actually the key chain would turn me a little, but what about the macro-op fusion?

Software for you but hardware for the rest of us. LOL.

Just read the spec sheet next to the product. Show reps only know as much as the PR manager is willing to tell them.

LOL whatever does it for you... You must be a moron to go up to a hot girl and start talking about Linux to her.

I'm going to have to go ahead and disagree with you there..

Take another look at the Intel gal with the dimples.

The bottom line is that if women showed up to these shows as guests, there would be hired MALE models in equal proportion. This is nothing more than targeted advertising, the vendors are catering to their audience. Are you seriously suggesting that they are foolish for realizing that men make up a huge portion of the decisionmaking purchasers of these products?
