Even the ads have bugs

In the new commercials for MSN 8, a guy dressed in a
Microsoft Butterfly costume drops out of a "cocoon." I
guess nobody at Microsoft, their ad agency, or any
company involved in the production of the commercial
knows that a butterfly doesn't emerge from a cocoon,
but a chrysalis -- moths come from cocoons. But then,
as the spy who picked up on this said, "this should
not be all that surprising since Microsoft seems to
have problems recognizing bugs when they see them."

that cannot reach its full potential because of artificial restraints."
