Showcase Wallpaper and More
Now that I am back in a secure, faster network, I can post the wallpaper as promised. As mentioned earlier, the picture was taken at Bell Labs in New Jersey. The year was 1966. It was taken by the photographer Elliott Erwitt. The picture is full of win and awesomeness, if you ask me. Anyway, click on the thumbnail for full view.

On a related note, you guys are probably familiar with Intel Museum. It gives you a fascinating view of life and research at Intel during the early years. If I travel to the States, visiting the museum will be right on top of my priority list. Look at one of the pictures from the archives. How awesome is this? Miniskirts FTW! It’s like Star Trek Yeoman’s, only this time in all white ensemble. Click on the picture to go to gizmodo for an article about Intel fashion scene then.
Miniskirts are the bomb!
I particularly like one comment over there at gizmodo. Grindhouse Murders commented that she is Snooki’s mom! LOL!
When you know what it is then it’s fun, but when I first saw the top one I thought “insane experiments on mentally unstable patients” or something in those lines. xD
