Y’know, for all the times I’ve been tempted to toss Windows where it belongs — into the toilet — I never figured that Microsoft itself would feel the same way! It appears I was wrong, however — at least, according to this MS UK press release<\/a>…<\/p>\n

\n The UK’s most popular website msn.co.uk is creating the world’s first ‘Internet Loo’. The iLoo will be mobile and is part of MSN’s mission to allow instant logging on ‘anytime and any place’.<\/p>\n

In time for the summer festival season, MSN is in the process of converting a portable loo to create a unique experience for surfers looking for an alternative to the bog-standard festival loo experience. Users will be able to sit down, undock a wireless keyboard and conveniently access the first ever WWW.C.<\/p>\n

A plasma screen will be located directly in front of them which can be adjusted to a desired height level. MSN is also in talks with toilet paper manufacturers to produce special web paper for those in need of URL inspiration.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Um…yeah. The only problem with a story like this is that all the really good jokes are<\/a> already<\/a> taken<\/a>.
