Does anyone else think this is a strange way to market laptop bags?

Maybe it's just me, but while these laptop bags look pretty cool (I like the drawstring closure idea), they sure have an odd way of marketing them:

http://www.golla.fi/index_flash.htm

(If you can make it through the flash, you will see a naked guy wearing a laptop bag...) Odd. I think they missed the mark a little bit, but maybe it's just me!

Naked guy - that's enough info to keep me from even looking. Ugh.

The majority of European countries arent ashamed of their bodies and sexuality. This is simply a culture diffrence between them and you.

What? I'm not ashamed of my body (though it's seen better times ). I simply don't want to see the naked body of another man. Motorcycles, computers or a nice hot mocha make far better viewing experiences.

Yes, we would, shazza. However, I doubt you would be pleased.

Apart from the naked guy, the laptop bags look pretty cool. I know my sister would love to have one because she is weird like that.

If I ever just need a laptop bag and not a backpack I would probably consider buying the Flash or maybe the Swing. Depends on how well made they are and what type of protection they offer.

Naked guy? I don't see a naked guy. I see a guy wearing a laptop bag concealing his mid-region. He clearly doesn't wear a shirt, nor long pants, but what precisely he is wearing where the laptop bag is is unclear. He may be wearing briefs, swimming pants, or even boxers, at least as far as I can tell. I did not examine the picture with a looking glass, though.

I think it's just you, as far as I can tell. I think there are better sites to choose from, if you have a need to see naked guys...

I admire that not all are marketing their products with traditional ways. And yes, I'm from Finland.. ;-)
