That darn Intel jingle...

[Jules Richardson]

OK, so there goes that irritating Intel jingle on yet another commercial 
for a product featuring one of their chips - thus ensuring that I'll 
make darn sure I shop around for alternatives before ever considering 
one of their chips.

It did make me think though; has computing history been littered with 
ads containing trademark features which are so annoying (in an audio or 
visual sense), or is this a recent thing? (For some reason the 
'Playstation noise' isn't nearly as grating...)

cheers
