I thought I was the only one who stuck stickers on my laptop. It turns out
I am in good company.
I stuck a bumper sticker on my laptop for the following reasons.
- So I wouldn’t confuse my laptop with other people’s laptops.
- I don’t put bumper stickers on my car for aesthetic reasons, but I didn’t want to toss my gorgeous EFF sticker.
- I wanted people who see the sticker to ask me what the EFF is. Even though I work with a very technical group of people it astounds me how few of them have heard of the EFF, much less donate to it.
- I wanted to irritate the next person my laptop gets handed off to.
Nice to see I’m in such good company.
Now I just wish my laptop wasn’t a Dell, so I could really hang with the
cool kids.

Michael Wilson of michaelmightgetfamous.com has a
laptop he dubs “Velox Canticle II” (I was a typewriter).
I met him at the radio drama deal this past summer.
Here’s a pic of his custom laptop sticker:

And yes, another reason I have for posting the
pic is that he reminded me a lot of you in
terms of his personality. He even looks a
bit like you too.
