Not that this is any surprise, but it’s now official: President Bush is not interested in gadgets, at least according to the Washington Post.
The president, for example, doesn’t experiment with digital cameras, but a professional White House photographer is always nearby. He doesn’t need to deal with online banking or shopping because his personal aide handles that for him…”He’s not one of these who has to have the latest and greatest model,” said communications director Dan Bartlett, a close presidential confidant and a 10-year Bush employee. He placed Bush “about mainstream” on the spectrum of people who can barely operate their VCR to those always eager for technology’s latest rage.
Probably means he’s not a Gizmodo reader, either.
