I couldn’t help but notice Engadget’s President’s Day post on what technology the Mount Rushmore presidents — Lincoln, Washington Jefferson, and Roosevelt — would be using today. Based on Engadget’s “most likely mis-guided and / or offensive stereotypes,” Thomas Jefferson would be a hipster,” appropriately sporting a MacBook and an iPod (along with a Sidekick and Wii). Lincoln, as a “uniter,” also seems to like the Mac, but in the spirit of peace, he runs Vista and Linux alongside OS X via Boot Camp and Parallels. All seems well there, except that Jefferson’s cellular provider would be T-Mobile. What? How’s he supposed to use the iPhone?
MacUser is your source for news, info, and opinion about Apple, the Mac, and the iPod. Our dedicated team of bloggers covers everything that is relevant to Mac users — and, okay, some stuff that’s not quite relevant, but is still a lot of fun.
Except any of us that attend Mr. Jefferson's University (UVa) know that T-Mobile gets the worst cell reception in Charlottesville. So maybe he would have an iPhone after all...
