El: I have just seen my first ever COMPAQ ad on British TV. It was prime time during the SKY Television News (satellite europe-wide).

It was a very white background, with black, free-hand doodles or line-drawings representing people in a street - animated. A bit like a Lowry painting. Some of them approached a point in the picture which was meant to be a cash dispenser.

Then a male voice with an English accent comes on and the spoken words are also trailed across the bottom of the screen. It says "75% of cash is provided by COMPAQ machines" Then a big red logo Q and "Better Answers" is the final shot. It was very bright, clear and pleasing.
