It is a well-executed waste of electrons that used 100% of my CPU and
heaps of bandwidth. Flash is a total abomination. If that ad was
implemented as an MPEG it would have used about 1/100 the CPU and bandwidth
resources. The interactivity provided by the ad was useless and stupid:
"It's not rocket surgery" ?
The people that put so much effort into this crap are a waste of
oxygen.
