 I did the same, thing, except San Francisco, long hair and a goatee,
 Jeans, black t-shirts and engineer boots, stickerbombed Thinkpad, indie
 coffee shops, and a Prius. I tried to be an anti-hipster surrounded by
 MacBooks and marketing people.

 I've moved from sticker-bombing to having a single sci-fi reference
 sticker on my laptop. Gotten comments on my Weyland-Yutani sticker and
 my Blue Sun Sticker from those in the know.
