Outlook party

I just found this picture whilst surfing (don't ask how). Its three geeks having a party and reading Outlook of all things. Hehhe maybe the first one to get e-mailed a virus has to drink his entire beer in one go.... Hehhe oops looks like they are too young looking to be able to drink, so they just have energy drinks....

Looks more like an ad for Dell's Inspiron and Latitude notebooks to me...

Maybe it's in one of those US colleges where all the students get a laptop at the beginning of the year. I wonder if they get to keep it.

LoL, I wish I went to a school like that. And sadly enough for those dorks, all those drinks are energy drinks, and not a single beer in that picture.

Free laptops in college? Over here you're lucky to have a free pass to use the colleges manky old Dimension PII systems

But Outlook? Surely anyone with the sense to be able to read that massive massive book in the background has the sense not to use Outlook

That picture is incredibly hard to see easily on my Dell Latitudes tiny screen though :-)

those "free" laptops are far from free. Most of those schools that issue them include their cost in tuition. Some schools lease laptops to their students as well. I'm not aware of any that actually give machines to students though, well not Dells anyway.

Take a look at the bottom right hand corner of his screen - it says Qualcomm

It looks like that book is a dictionary or something like that.
