As I'm about to leave the wonderful world of consumer electronic retail sales... again... at the end of this week, I couldn't resist posting this truer-than-life mock advertorial. Courtesy of both The Onion & the online diary of Robert Fripp:~



A shame they didn't go all out & produce catalogues, flyers, cardboard shelf-talkers, DVDs of the promo interspersed with movie clips to make it seem interesting & a mailing-list-acquisition database thinly disguised as an on-line competition for a lucky winner to receive a free piece of shit & a Michael Jackson Blu-Ray DVD...

... like they do with every other product launch
