Computer or fashion accessory? Buying

Computer or fashion accessory? Buying my morning coffee today, I spied une belle femme fussing away over her tangerine iBook, and was irresistably drawn to her. Of course it helped that she was smartly dressed and quite good looking, but part of me wonders...

Was it the sleek package beneath her clothes or the sleek package beneath her fingers that caught my eye? Will we soon be pre-judging people by their 'puters just as we (note how I cleverly mask my complicit guilt with the associative "we") do with their clothes, cars, kids and homes?
