Dinner with Geeks!!!
Arun had invited a few of the students from the Univ to dinner last night. Are they geeks!
Suddenly the conversation changes track and the guys start discussing one particularly pretty student. One of the PhD students was looking a little confused trying to figure out who the rest were talking about. Suddenly one saw enlightenment on his face. "Ok... I know who she is... she's the one with the IBM thinkpad...." Not the hairstyle, or other attributes to jog our friend's memory.
The reactions around were priceless.... jaws dropped, one guy even slapped himself to see if he'd heard right.....
And now I think people (especially Tina) should think twice before calling Arun a geek.

I think I'm more curious to know if this exchange took place through a mix of Japanese, English & Dumb Cs. I think the associated handmotions might be interesting to observe.
in english actually.. the group was a mix of Indians (us), one soul each from Slovakia, Hungary, Germany, Korea and Malaysia...
I had a ThinkPad... Now I have a Dell and Compaq... But I am not pretty... unless the Beholder is completely sozzled!
