I want you to join the U.S. Army! lol first thing I thought of when I saw the pic hahaha
Coincidence I think not!
This week, the White House became a switcher. As the new presidential team took over 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, they were met with outdated equipment still apparently running the sturdy old Windows XP and Windows 2000, as well as a host of bureaucratic rules meant to ensure that all official work at the White House can be properly recorded according to the Presidential Records Act.
The Obama team has long been known for using Apple equipment. President Obama himself uses a Mac laptop, as does his media team, which according to the Washington Post is now facing the daunting prospect of updating the West Wing to modern equipment and doing so while complying with government regulations.
The Post article quipped that "if the Obama campaign represented a sleek, new iPhone kind of future, the first day of the Obama administration looked more like the rotary-dial past." It seems as if the White House is making great strides forward technologically in short order. This week alone, the Whitehouse website was updated with a new look and an official blog. Can a Mac-friendly West Wing be far behind?
