No I dont buy advertised products. Except razorblades. I really do not buy mass market consumer products in general. Oh I bought an iphone, not because of the adverts though.

I have read a lot on advertising, it is very interesting. I simply do not buy the types of product that are advertised, and I am geeky about the stuff I do buy. If advertising was aimed at me it might work, but it is not, that was the point I was making, and why I think many geeky people are averse to advertising.

My views on German engineering are from time spent in Germany, and reading.
