Yesterday, a congressional hearing was held to determine whether the head of the National Security Agency, Lieutenant General Keith Alexander, will lead the U.S. Cyber Command.
According to Forbes, during the proceedings Alexander mentioned, with no prompting, that he owns an iPad, and with very little prompting, that it is "wonderful."
----- "I am a technologist. I love computers. I have a new iPad," Alexander told the committee of Senators. A few minutes later, Democratic Senator Mark Udall of Colorado couldn't help but bring it up again. From the Congressional Quarterly transcript:
Udall: I'm tempted to get a critical review of the iPad, but perhaps we can do that--
Alexander: Wonderful.
Udall: Wonderful. I will put that on -- for the record. -----
