Bunnypeople(TM)

I have found an interesting bit of information…It would seem, that Intel owns the trademark BunnyPeople. When I learned that, I couldn’t help but do some searching to find out what or who BunnyPeople are. Here’s what I found:

BunnyPeople

BunnyPeople are these stuffed dolls (or are they action figures? hmm…) of the highly trained people that make processors. Apparently, these "toys" were part of Intel’s marketing capaign in 1997 promoting the Pentium II.

According to some random site (mirror), the dolls are approx. 8 in (203.2 mm) or 13 in (330.2 mm) tall.

Unfortunatelly, I can’t give you a link to the actual trademark page (since the system uses a cookie-based search sessions), so I have to resort to giving you a link to a screenshot of the page.

  2. BTW, Intel changed it's "Intel Inside" slogan to a forgettable one, "Leap Ahead". Ah, marketing. Only marketing can achieve a level of stupidity that low.

  3. These are clearly bunny people - I don't know how you couldn't figure it out. Just take a lesson from Elmer Fudd and look for the big ears and puffy tails (you'll have to look inside their crazy shiny suits though).
