Enter Director of the NSA, Lieutenant General Keith B. Alexander. Recently he was giving testimony at a Congressional hearing held to determine whether he will lead the U.S. Cyber Command. During the meeting, he brought up his new iPad, out-of-the-blue, to praise it (how awesome is this guy!?).
After the iPad mention, a member of Congress actually returned fire on the iPad, wanting to see a ‘critical review’ of the iPad… Here’s the exchange:
Congressman: I’m tempted to get a critical review of the iPad, but perhaps we can do that–
Director of the NSA: [It’s] Wonderful.
Congressman: “Wonderful.” I will put that on — for the record.
Even National Security can take a back-seat to the iPad, if only for a few moments 🙂
