There are laws about pharmaceutical ads.  If they say anything specific 
about the product then they also have to list the possible side-effects, 
etc.  That doesn't apply to computer ads, though it might be nice if it did ...

"Buy Windows XP.  Warning ... possible side-effects are crashes due to 
operating system instabilities, virus infections due to security holes, etc."
