Calum:
microsoft have actually got a page, three movies and one song about how shit the paperclip is to advertise the fact that it doesn't appear in office XP! how screwy is that?

quote:My name is Clippy,
and Office XP has me sweating (and rusting).

Why? Because Office XP works so easily that it's made Office Assistants like me useless. Obsolete. And, I'm told, hideously unattractive.

They even cut my pay, despite the fact that I work for free!

I've taken over this space to share my pathetic story and show off my skills as a Web designer. Not bad, huh? Know anyone who's hiring?

For years I've told you what to do. Now it's your turn. What should I do with all my newfound spare time? Vote at this online poll. (Note: Dimpled chads will not be counted. So make sure you press the computer screen firmly.)

And another thing: Out of sorrow can come great art

Yeah, it's nuts.  What's more nuts is that those who have Office XP (I won't touch it myself) tell me that the paperclip is still there....
