    Ok, maybe I'm dreaming but I swear at one time there was an ad for Visual Studio (or perhaps some related product) where a developer essentially makes coffee in his mouth... has anyone seen that? Where can I find it so I can show somebody else? It was one of those Flash-based video ads that appears on web sites. I think I might have seen it here or on MSDN.

        Are you confusing it with the Mr. Bean skit?

          I avoid Mr. Bean like a rodent in New York City... so I'm pretty sure I'm not mixing it up with that. I saw it maybe 2 years ago, but it was funny enough to be memorable. Couldn't find it on Google or Youtube.

            I remember that. It was one of the 150 ads made by MS to promote VS2005 on websites...It would randomly play one of the ads. MS had a site with all of them...the link was on the VS2005 product description page. I couldn't say if this still exists though.

              That was part of the "400+ Differences" campaign for the VS2005 launch. Some of those were pretty funny. I found a copy of the "Coffee" ad here: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4917904772165539114&q=400plusdifferences&total=2&start=0&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=0
