It appears that IBM's rebel advertising agency is at it again--this time in Chicago. The troupe may have to pay thousands of dollars in fines and restitution for graffiti spray-painted on Chicago sidewalks in a multimillion-dollar Big Blue ad campaign touting the company's new eServer systems.

Dubbed eLiza, the multi- billion project is an attempt to mimic the self-healing abilities of living creatures. The initiative isn't the first from IBM to develop systems that can self-monitor. Big Blue has already begun selling memory systems that can keep working even when memory chips fail completely.
