Mc’s not Mac (or PC)
Okay, just saw this and it troubles me…
It’s not so much that McCain is a technological illiterate (though, of course, that doesn’t seem to me a good thing for a world leader in 2008 to be), but that he admits as much and can’t – won’t? – even answer the “Mac vs. PC” question, one that’s been an entry-level tech questions for…man, must be 20 years now, strikes me as particularly… Ignorant? Out of touch? I don’t even know.
I mean, seriously. It’s not like he’s being asked Facebook vs. MySpace; that one I wouldn’t necessarily expect him to have an answer for.
Sheesh. Where’s he been the past 20 years? An isolated wilderness?
…oh, that’s right, he has been in an isolated wilderness for 20 years; he’s been a member of Congress since ’83.

(insert rimshot here!)
That was a good one, Alan. Personally, I’m not all that worried that McCain is computer illiterate. If he’s elected President, he’ll certainly have someone to Google for him.
