I must adhere to the rules of the lounge and keep all my comments at a KSS level.

He would have a website sponsored by Coca Cola where you could register to download great apps (how I hate that word) as presents. And he supposedly would not have any elves at the north pole, but a regiment of code monkeys in India.

He already does.. all gifts to be delivered in a night... maybe he actually is a Developer..
search google for William Severance... he actually is a developer, and really looks like Santa..
