Based on what I have seen so far, adding this to the Dell article on
Wikipedia would be undue weight (and a corporate attack) unless there
was a consistent pattern of Dell selecting twits like this to MC their
events.
Tom has mentioned that Dell has used sexist advertising in the past,
which would be more directly relevant as it is not a once of mistake.
However even that would need to be put in context of the sector to see
whether their use of sexist marketing is worse than others.

Has there been any response from Dell about this, on twitter? Or did
they bunker down and pretend it didnt happen? How have they responded
to other criticisms..?
A wikinews investigative journalism story would be a great way to
bring more facts about this to the public domain.
