If you notice, the text of the add mentions 2 engines that are included with
Deep Junior 8.  In fact, Deep Junior 8 is specifically mentioned several times.
The only indication that it is Junior 8 is in the image of the cover.  It seems
that there was a mix up with the photographer or director of artwork and the
incorrect cover was sent to advertisers.  The text of the actual ad itself
states quite clearly that Deep Junior 8 comes with 2 engines, not junior8.
