Maybe it's because our company is heavily involved in the development of wireless networking peripherals, but we thought that this commercial spoof was just a riot. (For those who aren't familiar with the term, WiFi is the nickname for the wireless networking protocol that's becoming more popular in the consumer and business market. It allows computers to be connected to a network (internal and/or the Internet) without physically plugging in your computer. It's especially handy for laptops.

At the bottom of the page is another spoof ad that's just about as tech-geeky. Instead of Open Source software, it's an ad for Open Sores software, it's bleeding edge!
