Check out the ad for the Visiontek GeForce4. What does a girl in a bikini have to do with it? Maybe The GeForce4 has enough polygon power to push out pretty prissys...? (My consonance is infectious)

It has to do with the target demographic of this ad. Think of the average consumer who is prone to buying the newest video cards on the market... hmmm, does a young male between about 15 and 25 come to mind?

So, if I buy the card, I will get a hot bikini chick. Uh... I don't think so. Quite the opposite, in fact. ;)

No, you look at the ad because it has a hot bikini chick in it. It seems to have worked on you, BTW. ;)

it is called "sex sells"

It got you to look at it, and even the time to talk about it here didn't it?

Looks like it is working to me.. ;)

I guess you have never watched TV before. They do the same thing with other products.

You get the girl in the bikini in the ad when you buy this card...



No I'm serious you do..just takes a little work

you just have to scan in the box, collect just her with photochop, print her out on a laserjet printer, then glue her to your Susie blow-up doll that you keep hidden underneath your bed*

Sex sells my friend...what does the bikini woman have to do with the low-rider or souped up truck on the car mags? Nada, zilch...but it made you look. Welcome to marketing 101.


*if you think I'm serious, here's a quarter(1/4) to buy a clue :D

Do you think drinking beer, smoking cigs, driving nice cars, owning big tvs will get you girls?

Well maybe the nice car, but its the way it is because there that much more of a chance that someone will buy it. I remember seeing a commercial called tits and @ss beer, it said you drink this beer and you will get more t&a then you ever believe. I would post it but it has some stuff that can't be shown on here.
