Hi,

Something seems to be wrong with the ad banners on linux-mm.org.

Or is sombody trying to be funny?

Do you know how many clicks you get from this?

Google ads - they help pay for bandwidth and new hardware when required ...

... but sometimes they end up showing rather nonsensical ads.

If Microsoft wants to waste their money it's fine by me.  I think
it's quite funny. I've seen them buy text ads with "Linux Kernel"
as the link words, too.

I'd block their ads, but the idea of Microsoft sponsoring a Linux
development site is just too ironic.
