#MicrosoftBob
Microsoft's worst software flop was secretly packed with Windows for years
A former Windows developer reveals why Windows was dragging around 30 MB of completely useless data for many years. The data came from Bob, one of Microsoft's biggest failures.

Before Clippy, there was Rover.

While Microsoft Bob was a lackluster and a flop, the only things that stood out the most were the characters. Especially Rover!

I installed Microsoft Bob on my windows XP computer and I plan to use it as a replacement of the traditional desktop❣️ it's so full of character 🐶
Anyone else still use #MicrosoftBob?

😄 Ha-ha, yes - there are certainly suitable uses (such as for the cartoon dog Rover in #MicrosoftBob) and unsuitable (such as on the side of Medical transport) ones.

The menu sounds like an example of the latter. 😀
An example of Comic Sans as used for the speech bubble on a cartoon dog in the Microsoft Bob application. Comic Sans (with additional drop shadow) used on the side of an Ambulance.

The more I look at #MicrosoftBob, the more awesome it looks. As a permanent interface? Maybe not great. But as a way to make a huge gray screen seem home-y and cozy? Perfect. Oh, and I can customise the surroundings? This would have been so easy to create add-ons for back in the day.
