Wasn't it Windows?
Show threadDgarDec 24, 2022

@hias1234 Clippy was the default office assistant for Office from Microsoft Office 97 to Microsoft Office 2003 on Windows, and the 98 to 2004 versions of Microsoft Office for Mac.

@dgar nice Design. BTW I Used Windows95 and Windows7 much longer than anybodyelse!
Show threadDgarDec 24, 2022
@olifants Windows XP Professional 64bit Edition was the finest version of Windows that Microsoft has ever produced.
- my humble opinion.
Show threadOlifantDec 24, 2022
@dgar true! I forgot about it! Used it even longer than win7 and to be honest: one of my most important business PC still runs XP prof. It's not connected to www and its like a beetle (not the new one. The 1972 one, 1200ccm) er läuft und läuft und läuft...

Karl Klammer: Der erste proaktive Office-Assistent

Mit Office 97 führte Microsoft menschenähnlich gestaltete Assistenten ein. Aber die Klammer ging allen nur auf die Nerven – eine Geschichte des Scheiterns.
