This is an extract from Backbytes, the 'amusing' back page of Computer
Magazine:

GUESS WHO

Jonathon Palmer, of Track Records, was having a fine time listening to
Gateway's hold music recently.  In keeping with Gateway's advertising, the
song used was The Who's "Who Are You?"

"Evidently the young marketing department thought it a lively, catchy little
tune," says the 40-something Palmer.  That was until he pointed out Roger
Daltrey's typically gratuitous use of a four-letter word three-quarters of
the way through.

We assume that Gateway received the answer it sought, because The Who have
now been replaced with the less confrontational Corrs.

On another note, was anyone else as surprised & pleased as I was to find an
email from Pete Townshend in their Inbox yesterday?
