- fernando26, on 10/12/2007, -3/+143Wow, total hottie.
I bet she wouldn't have gotten enough donated if she was an obese hairy geek. - JeffH, on 10/12/2007, -6/+115Computer Science major + girl = heaven.
Computer Science major + good-looking girl = we need a new word for this. - itsmrdumass, on 10/12/2007, -2/+100Free laptop because of sponsors or because she's hot??!!
- jbowditch, on 10/12/2007, -11/+102the title should read: "Hot programmer uses hotness to get new computer!"
damn hotness - Yashar, on 10/12/2007, -12/+91Yea shes pretty hot.
- aspec, on 10/12/2007, -6/+63@raabco
Note: We also would have accepted "I'd hit that" or "I'd tap that"
Stop Domestic Abuse - gnarbuckets, on 10/12/2007, -4/+55http://www.myspace.com/leahculver. she has hot friends, too!
(professional cyberstalker, at your service) - LiquidPenguin, on 10/12/2007, -5/+52Pretty cool, but....
They still make Zip drives? - spiritamx79, on 10/12/2007, -10/+47shes hot, and shes a mac user.
=) - itsmrdumass, on 10/12/2007, -1/+34If you look close you can see a cool laptop on the site too!
- joaob, on 10/12/2007, -10/+42digg me down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+33Did any of you guys notice there was a laptop featured in this article?
- Netmindstorm, on 10/12/2007, -0/+30Yeah, but in college we finally discovered the universal formula:
beauty * brains = constant
where beauty is a function of alcohol over a finite period of time. However, if one were to drink forever then you could approach that function which the assumption that time approaches infinity and beauty would increase for all time (or to the limit as the liver approaches cirrhosis) - livet0ski, on 08/17/2009, -2/+31i don't know if thats the right question to be asking.... people still use zip drives?
- jhaitas, on 10/12/2007, -1/+18her looks definitely helped her cause... i would love to meet a tech-savvy girl that looked that good
- JohnnySailor, on 10/12/2007, -4/+18Is that... is that Veronica Mars?
- kyrobeshay, on 10/12/2007, -0/+14Finding is the hardest part.
A rag and some choloform will take you all the way. - dburka, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13Catches this? The new MacBook Pro Core 2 Duos can handle 3gb of ram and this one is indeed fully loaded.
- MikeOSX, on 10/12/2007, -3/+16sometimes it's rash, immature comments like these that make my day!
- jbowditch, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13but mostly hot
- StealthPersona, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11From her web page: "After completing my B.S. in Computer Science at the University of Minnesota, I moved to Silicon Valley to seek my fortune as a computer programmer. [...] Unfortunately I'm completely broke ..."
Now that's funny! - chicagobiker, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12You are obviously lost; this is the Internet. You're looking for the Library.
- DreKor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11hooray.
the counter to your argument is that she has so saturated her environment with brands and logos because see sees them for the empty symbols that they are and can, thereby, use them to her betterment (viz. new lap top) without succumbing to their now impotent messages of consumerism. she has actually surpassed you in alternative hippie-dom by transcending the brand instead of merely rejecting it out of fear. - hansondr, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12@jeffH
the word I'd use is amazing...too bad it has lost all meaning on digg :P - leahculver, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Very fair comment. The laser-etching machine at Squid Labs is on the fritz. They're looking at fixing it now. I've offered full refunds to the companies whose logos were affected.

even better you can apply for a job and work with her..
MySpace helps cyberstalkers go to the next level. Really kind of scary I think... - KnightMareInc, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11lol i swear to god its the same 5-10 people who digg me down for no reason.
- MoneyShot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Anyone else notice the Pirate Bay logo on it? It's the only one not hyperlinked (gee, why not) other than the one from her parents.
- nakedcellist, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8I found the last photo amusing: she is wearing a weldingmask with a sticker on it with "trust women!"
- exobyte, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10Title should be something like "Girl sells ad space on laptop screen to pay for laptop." Oh joy. the digg log. oh joy.
- AtomicTheory, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8The laser engraving is not done very well. You may have noticed the Ask.com and sf-vibe.com logos, along with many of the other logos, seem to fade out or be splotchy. I only know because my father and I have a small business doing laser engraving (http://www.lwoa.com) on all sorts of stuff --- monuments, doors, murals, signs, and lots of different small applications. I, myself, have put my name, 2 logos, and many websites on 3 laptops with better results than this.
..... and I only mention it because these companies actually paid money for their logos to be there (in bad quality). - leahculver, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7The tape and crossbones logo was sent to me by my friend Chase. He just liked the artwork and says it's from a foreign band (can't remember who offhand). Chase also sponsored the Weakerthans quote.
- jeffyjones, on 10/12/2007, -5/+11I know that women, let alone attractive women, are rare in tech circles, but do you all have to start thinking with your dicks the moment one appears online? Wipe the drool off your chin, and digg on.
- sockpuppets, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Prepare to be dugg down like I've never seen before.
- BransonLAN, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Or maybe, it's just a shirt. Just because you're wearing a branded shirt doesn't mean you're a zealot.
- modsuperstar, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8So how long until Digg is flooded with copycats trying to get a laptop for free via advertising? Good on her for getting it done, it definitely looks sharp.
- Pilgrim, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6She is good looking, I will give you that. However, just because she is good looking does not mean that is the only reason that she got all the ads paid for. Yes, perhaps if all of the advertisers are really that shallow, but I doubt they are. Leah just had a good idea and followed through with it, and for that I applaud her.
- newrecruit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5http://www.digg.com/about/daniel
- kodek, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6The apple logo isn't upside down.
- _Ty_, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Yet another entry in the "why didn't I think of that?" file...
- monkeybutler, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6With all the "hotness" talk, people seem to be ignoring the fact that the laserjob looks horrible. Look at the sponsors at the bottom.
http://leahculver.com/laptop-large.jpg - retral, on 10/12/2007, -4/+8Good way to get a girl, tell her she needs bigger boobs.
Personally, I think she's gorgeous without big boobs (it's not all about boobs, you know). - dandiemer, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5can it say "I'm totally into the same sex"?
- djneonshadow, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5She only got it because she is hot.
- Kanaka, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Saw this earlier on flickr. Awesome story and the MacBook Pro is totally MAXED out. 3GB RAM/2.33 GHz/200GB HDD. All for free. Man she's smart....and hot. The engraving also came out right. One Happy Ending.
- SirBriggs, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4@chicagobiker and comstock76
Stalkers, both of you. - jeylux, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4She works at Squid Labs anyway...
can't that be part of the reason she got the hook up? - TheBigShovel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I'm sure hers was free since she worked there.
- kyrobeshay, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6*****, it's a ***** t-shirt.
You people try too hard to be different.
If you have a problem with the damn shirt, don't wear it, and show me your b00bz!!! -
