Could It Possibly Be More Irritating?
For those readers who have never experienced Microsoft Bob, here are some of the 'highlights':
The Bob Magazine, a paper supplement to the program, making inroads to being even more patronising than the personal guides.
The guides telling you to click on a program to start it even when you've proved a thousand times that you're capable of doing so.
Rover adding 'Bow-wow', 'Rrruff' or 'Woof woof' to his sentences for no reason.
Hopper, the stuffed blue bunny, looking like he's going to murder you in your sleep.
The Speaker, yet another guide, listing his favourite food as AC/DC.
The chequebook personal assistant telling you to 'stick with it' when you try to leave his 'interview'.
The 'Cancel' button randomly cycling through 'Never Mind', 'Forget It' and 'Nuh'.
The personal guides using your name before every single thing they say to you.
The personal guides patronising you with comments such as 'Here we go!', 'Good job so far!' and 'It's a room just for you!'.
