Barbie the geek

So Mattel had a contest to pick Barbie's next career, and weirdly enough, computer engineer won.

I work on the main Microsoft campus in Redmond, and I can assure you that no one on that campus looks even a little bit like this.
What Barbie job do you best remember? I guess they've had doctors and Miss Americas and "American Idol" finalists and Rockettes, but the main Barbie of my era was Malibu Barbie, so I guess her job was as a ... suntanner? Slacker? Yes, Gen X scores again!
