Sure it did.  Again, we're talking more about managers and boss types. 
When a boss decides a companmy is a competitor do you really think that
they are not going to find out how their prodecuts are made?  And if they
go to their competitor's site and see that it was "Made with Java", do you
really think that this will not peak their interest?  If they didn't know
anything about Java before then, after then they know that Java was being
used by someone they respected.  Ads may not be THE answer for Perl, but I
can has to help.
IMHO.
