They even sang the five note
jingle in the right key—
C-sharp.
Ajay Bhatt was a chick magnet long before he invented the USB.

ha ha ha, loved it.

It would have been cooler if that had really been Ajay Bhatt. It’s an actor.
They should have used “Bad to the Bone”.
Great ad!
#7 is correct, c# base key for the jingle.

You’re right… it’s not the real Bhatt… but still great ad! Made me smile.
“Will the real Bhatt please stand up?”
I thought this was a RUN-AROUND of APPLE’s 1394 interface patents..WHICH is faster, and had more options..
True, FireWire is better. And if I remember correctly, they came out at about the same time.
But I’m not sure if Intel has any original product with the same level of name recognition as “USB”. Maybe I’ll be proved wrong with the next ad in this series.
#15:
While USB and firewire are both serial busses, they really don’t have anything else in common. Each were designed with completely different design goals in mind. Firewire shares many things with SCSI. Multi-master and QOS being two.
USB’s primary design goal was to be cheap as hell while unifying the connector type.
Praise for the H1-B-visa foreigner who got the American’s job and opportunity to invent.
PROPAGANDA.

I was a classmate with Ajay (A.J. to his friends) at Hyderabad High and, yes, he had the babes dripping off him.
I invented inheritance for object oriented systems, where are my babes?
