No idea what the ‘Bob’ adventure is.. but I did hate trying to get rid of the talking paper-clip.. :p I guess it would have assisted many here in Japan.. but it only irritated me :p I was happy to walk them through what to do without the paper-clip (or the talking dolphin, not sure if that is Japan specific)..
Microsoft Bob...

The wikipoedia page about it.
It was a horrid attempt to do away with the familiar windows interface and go to a graphical interface.

It was not well received.
Of course, the true believers went all out zealot on people over it.
And the people who didn’t fall for hype and advertising said, “Hey, this really bites!”
