Looks like the One Laptop Per Child Foundation is trying hard to get their adverts to get people talking.
Following the hard-hitting, gritty effort we brought you news of before Christmas, their latest stars dead Beatle John Lennon.
Lennon's voice-over talks about what an OLPC laptop would mean for the the children in developing nations as he is "seen" on an XO machine's screen.
Apparently Yoko Ono gave the necessary permission for the advert to go ahead, but it's still causing controversy among fans.
