  We observe several interesting phenomena in a technicolor-like model of
electroweak symmetry breaking based on the D4-D8-D8bar system of Sakai and
Sugimoto. The benefit of holographic models based on D-brane configurations is
that both sides of the holographic duality are well understood. We find that
the lightest technicolor resonances contribute negatively to the
Peskin-Takeuchi S-parameter, but heavy resonances do not decouple and lead
generically to large, positive values of S, consistent with standard estimates
in QCD-like theories. We study how the S parameter and the masses and decay
constants of the vector and axial-vector techni-resonances vary over a
one-parameter family of D8-brane configurations. We discuss possibilities for
the consistent truncation of the theory to the first few resonances and suggest
some generic predictions of stringy holographic technicolor models.
