Yep, I have fond memories of the TV ads for Two Dogs.  Very, very funny.

"A six legged dog?" ;-)

P.S. If this patch insanity comes to pass, I'm hoping that HP can at
least keep patch cover letters available for free.  If they don't,
people without support contracts won't even know that potential problems
exist on their systems.  That's a place I'd not what to be as a customer.
