Your guide to Microsoft BobYou young'uns out there may not know what MS Bob is, but it was Microsoft's failed attempt at putting a pretty face on Windows 3.1 and Windows 95. And boy was it ugly, clunky, and crap -- that was later implemented in Windows XP. I remember reading somewhere (can't remember where) that before they were married, Melinda, Bill Gates' wife, was the lead developer on the "Bob" project. And that's where they met, and fell in love. You can read into that how ever you want. Thanks to Neil for the link. 4 Commentsare said on 02/28/04 @ 05:22 PM:where can i buy microsoft bob cheap in the uk ghost of microsoft bob said on 04/25/04 @ 06:02 PM: bill gates murdered me in 1996, and i deserved it. i was stupid, insulting and utterly childish, in fact, i should have been aborted before birth.
