Screw you, Dell. Just because I have a uterus, does not mean that I need a special website for shopping for computers. FAIL FAIL FAIL.

This is just as offensive as Blackbird.
The website is incredibly annoying. It’s called “Della.” Under tech tips, you’ll find things like, “Browse the web for recipes!” and “enable your calorie-counting obsession!” and “meditate!” Exactly one of these tech tips is actually devoted to something somewhat tech-related, and even it is condescending, vague, and completely useless. Basically, this website makes me feel like Dell honestly believes women have no knowledge of or use for computers beyond being pretty, fgoogling girly stuff, and being pretty. Ugh.
“Once you get beyond how cute they are, you’ll find that netbooks can do a lot more than check your email.”
REALLY? i know i sometimes border on crazy-feminist-bitch, but SERIOUSLY?
what irritates me most about this is not the fact that some asshole marketing guy probably thought he was being insightful when he came up with this— it’s that no one else at dell had the sense to stop him.
