Quick retex of the "Ratty Skirt" outfit (the one that Nick's secretary and the girl at Atom Cat's Garage wear) Wanted to make a "uniform" for some of settlers shopkeepers to wear. Sorry bout the low rez. quality, my computer is dying and I can only run the game in "Patato Mode"

The joke is a combination of GLADoS (a nearly omnipotent homicidal AI) being stuck running on a potato battery for much of Portal 2, and the general idea of a potato battery being used to run something as power-hungry as a computer.
Also, in extreme cases, the textures on a "potato computer" can be so resolution they actually look much like the splotchy skin of, yep, a potato.
And...I just killed the joke. Sorry, internet!
