Brenden I disagree. From a marketing standpoint the laptop skin is a good idea if done right every image is a good image leads to top of mind awareness but again it has to be done right or you become the guy with the tacky laptop
Sure, but you don't need a "skin" in order to do that. If you've got a logo or icon that's used everywhere else in your marketing, it makes sense to put it on something that lots of people are going to see. If you don't have a logo and you're just buying a big white vinyl sticker and adding clipart to it to fill the space, it might not be the best use of your money. As you said... if done right. Mix's skin doesn't fit that criteria.
