I logged into Minecraft on my laptop and was happy to see my skin/model was the new Alex model. I logged onto my desktop and was sad to see it's still Steve.

I thought the model you got was random, but tied to a unique account ID. Since I log in with the same account on both machine's, I'm wondering why they are different. Is there a way to get the Alex model on my desktop?

The problem with that rumor is that there isn't really anyway to tell if they were a boy or a girl, so how would Mojang know which skin to give them?

i heard rumor saying "if you're girl then your account would be alex skin ( using 1.8)
if you're guy then your account is still steve, but im not too doubt about this.
i've seen few alex skin ( saying there is girls out there got alex skin randomly) :/ *shrug*

is it possible that u have no idea how that works? He is using the same account on both pc and laptop and than he should have the same ID. also u cant upload the Alex model yet.

It could be that you have a bad connection at your desktop because than it can't check if u have alex or steve
