Gender Electronics: Samsung's New "Compact" Hard Drive

samsungcompactdrive.jpgFor any individual who appreciates quality electronic gadgets, a compact, lightweight hard drive seems like a great investment. When that hard drive is marketed towards women and promoted for its visual similarity to a powder compact, however, it seems just plain silly. Sure, us ladies appreciate pretty things now and then, but it's hard to believe a woman wouldn't buy a gadget because she didn't relate to its colorless, "tech" design. And this latest electronic device by Samsung shouldn't exclude the gents either, if they're in the market for a portable hard drive--or do guys tend to shun small appliances? At least they didn't color it bright fuchsia. (Popgadget)
