I loved this....when I was *eight*.
I used it to make cards for my parents. That's seriously all we had a use for it. Then I learned how to do other stuff with Windows and suddenly Bob started gathering dust.

No it doesn't, but thanks for playing. The DOS in Windows these days is a virtual construct.

It's annoying? Heck, it is, but it is kinda complete, and for a little kid, it would be great.

It's like they set out to create the worst interface for anything possible. This is about half a step behind starting your toaster with an internal fork activated switch.
Why didn't someone stand up and say "what the fuck is this? What the hell are you people doing?"

TBH it was more of a timing issue that killed this. It came out just before windows 95. If you installed this on 3.1 - I can see the usefulness for novice users. On 95 though things were straight forward enough with the big "start" button that honestly it was just annoying.

LOL, I remember BOB, Terrible idea for a Computer tho, But very un-original Setup, Like BeatleMatt Said, Its Great for Kids..
