I opened my newspaper this morning and found this ad for HP color
laser printers:

(warning: 780k PDF)
Notice what is on the chart the man at the top is holding. The same
image is coming out of the left-most printer. As data charts, they'd
have Edward Tufte in a lather. But to us, it looks like a 4x4
version of Volcano!
While poking around the HP site to find this ad, I found another ad
they have. It features the same chart, though in B&W, but this time
prominently in the center:

(this time only a 270k PDF)
Okay, fess up, who here works at an ad agency with an HP account?
