I don't mind advertisements for products relevant to
museums--including some of the
ones I can recall seeing in the past few months such as career placement
services, display cases, and even the one Ms. Johnson's talking about,
faxing.  There also is someone putting out an email newsletter on
cultural web sites who obviously
does it partly to promote his business, but I like the newsletter a lot
and I'm glad he informed Museum-L about it.  It *would* bother me if we
were beleagured by ads for unrelated products.
