Techie Clothing

I was reading this totally unrelated article about Web 2.0, when this statement about clothing caught my eye:
Judging by the people I met and the dress standards I would judge the audience as 1/3rd Business-VC (suit and tie) 1/3rd Techie (Jeans and T-Shirt) and 1/3rd Professional Technologist (Suit but no tie).

Old habits die hard. I'm wearing jeans today. I know I'm probably supposed to be dressing nicer, but it seems like every day I wear a skirt or khaki pants, that's the day I have to rummage around on the floor messing with network cables or the like.
