If Microsoft used a DoubleClick.com ad rotator to place banners on their
front page, you probably WOULD see an occasional Linux ad there.
Linux.com is using a DoubleClick.com ad rotator. In the last few
minutes, in addition to an ad for Microsoft's search, I saw ads for:
audible.com
The Sopranos
indoor dog food from longliveyourdog.com
and assorted tech companies, like HP and CDW.
