Hidden Nextian Joke

I just saw something that is only funny to fans of Fforde, it was an add for some souped-up-Dell-on-steroids on the back of a magazine, the tag line was

"This time, Golaith wins"

Lets hope thats not the tag line on the cover of TN-6

Its a goofy gag that has a different meaning to the joke (David/Golaith), or Is someone at Dell a Thursday Fan? I saw the Next side of it, maybe more people do to. A funny thing to have if you see it (the ad I saw was on the back of Games for Windows)

I went back and looked at the magazine again, the line is actualy

"In the real world, Golaith Wins."
