As an engineer(ing student </3), I object to the name MagnaTablet!... If an engineer was marketing something by themself, it would have a name more like: HCD4026 (Handheld Computing Device)

I love this forum 150% as much as I love the comic.

I think this just highlights that the setup (panel 1) had a fair amount of humor potential, which the second panel wasted on a not-joke.

Seriously, he didn't make the product fail at marketing nearly as much as it would have if an engineer did it D'= (An engineer would probably package it in a brown cardboard box too <_<)

How? The product name wasn't really the joke.

Engineer jokes aren't meant to be funny.

Yeah, but the product name could have been a joke, and the ad could have featured a bunch of extremely technical specifications that no one would understand, maybe it could have had a space for the megapixels on the product's camera and then refused to give them, because megapixels don't actually determine the camera's quality, etc. I dunno, I'm not a comic writer. I just feel like Zach could have done much more with the premise.

Marketing is really now quite an important thing without which you can not really sell anything. I am sure that using only the most modern methods of promotion, you can really achieve something.

I think many who have ever tried to sell any goods or services are well aware that without promotion on the Internet can not do. Now there are a number of marketing strategies and services that allow you to sell products using external linking. This really works perfectly and many were able to see this for themselves. This is really a great opportunity to expand your business and increase its efficiency, so go for it.
