EMAIL DETAILS

Vice President Joe Biden is a PC
By Michael O'Brien - 05/13/10 04:19 PM ET

A photo released Thursday of Vice President Joe Biden in his home office
offers a few entertaining insights.

This afternoon Biden called from his home in Wilmington, Del., the general
manager of an Indiana company that shipped its first electric vehicle,
construction of which was financed with stimulus dollars.

The wood-paneled home office featured some interesting tidbits, though.

In the foreground of a photo released by the White House is a coffee mug
featuring a donkey, symbolizing the Democratic Party.

And in a White House that has been closely observed for its use of
technology, Biden has what appears to be a Hewlett-Packard laptop open to a
news site, with a number of family photos surrounding it.

President Barack Obama made waves for insisting on holding on to his
BlackBerry after taking office, though it had to be specially formatted for
security purposes. Some presidential observers have wondered for some time
whether Obama, too, uses a PC, or if he's a fan of Macs.
