How funny, meaningful, informative, or insightful a commercial is, is pretty much meaningless by itself. We can all recall many very funny or interesting commercials, but can't remember the product. Banks are famous for this. I could give other examples, but you wouldn't remember the commercial if I named the product;) hense the problem.
What problem? These are the best adverts- great entertainment and no urge to buy!;+>
Here is a suggestion from the OSAIA forum.. ( I love this one!)
turn "sco" into generic noun & verb (Score:0)

Here's a fightback that SCO can't stop: Turn their name into a generic noun and verb.
Noun definition: a loser who resorts to deceit or coercion because they lack imagination or principles. Synonymous with "scumbag." For example, "That sco tried to rip me off, but he didn't get away with it."
Also: a deceptive or coercive scheme. Synonymous with "scam." For example, "Don't invest in that company, their offering is a sco."
Verb definition: to obtain something by deceit or coersion due to a lack of imagination or principles. Synonymous with "to screw." Example, "He tried to sco me but he didn't get away with it."
The poetic justice here is, SCO is trying to take something that belongs to *everyone* and make it *theirs.* Turning their name into a generic turns something that is/was "theirs" into something that belongs to *everyone.* And there's nothing they can do to stop it!

Perhaps they intend to run it on all the MS Update servers, to meet the new 'security benchmarks'....??
DeBeers announced they were retaining SCO's lawyers, claiming "...it's ours, I tell you!!!! OURS!!"
Don't be daft. Water = Fire. Earth = Air. Clear? ( Clear = Windex )
Most power distrobution is 3-phase, which dosen't require a return - the 'neutral' is virtual.

Explain, if you can- oh, you're an AC, never mind..back to playing with your own excrement.
True, and now they have a monopoly in ISS Service and Transport, Inc.
Shuttle Replacement: Econoline van on top of 10 tons of TNT. Light blue touch paper at arm's length.
Nokia 8210. Old school. Really annoying standard rings too. No-one else would use "rocket".
Pie!
But the ad firms smile, bank and move on to the next funny ad..
Don't they need to become self-aware first? :>
Maybe they could make just the data degrade, leaving a blank DVD-R that could be used again. Hmm.. AOL! Are you listening....?
Tried that. Grandma's rusted up real good now...
No.No.

You are both crazy, aren't you..? :*>
Agreed. "Professional" does not mean wearing a suit or writing letters that sound like the Queen of bloody England.
