digital going micro softer every day

Hmm, all the URLs at digital have gone .asp

	http://www.pc.digital.com/products/notebook/hinote_vp_500_abstract.asp

And then we see

	HTTP/1.0 Server Too Busy

Which Company had this advert in Wired, some time ago with
texts Clickable NT boxes like

	Server Busy, come back later
	 Server is Really Busy
	  Server Busy, come back some other time
 	   Server Busy, tommorrow perhaps
	    Hey what are you; a rejection junkie ?!
	     Get Lost

Or something on those lines.

I don't think that was an ad ... I think that was a "splash page" -- the
intro page that used to precede the main page on hotwired.com.  But it was
cute.
