They sure did! Two of them in fact. Both have a z9 as the only server in a datacenter similar to empty datacenter in "The Heist". In the first commercial, a guy throws a football at it, which, of course, it does not catch. I forget the dialog. In the second ad, the actor that was used in "The Heist" that panicked and called the police is used again here. Again, I forget the dialog. What I do remember though (hey, it was late) is that both ads made me smile.
