Ugh, my wife loved that damn thing for about a week. I was so glad when she stopped using it and I stealthy drove over it with the car.

I agree on ME. I found out a while back that a friend of mine was running it, and was laughing for about half an hour.
Nice top.
Yes to **** with RealPlayer! Someone submitted my email address to get to donwload the free RealPlayer, since then I've been plauged with their newsletter. Trying to unsubscribe that damn spam 10 times didn't help! If they don't stop spamming my email address I'll start hoping their company goes bancrupt, if that's the only way their spamming of me can stop!
AOL and RealPlayer are really a crap load.
I remember being spammed with AOL software when I had a 166MHZ computer(about 5 years ago!!!).

#18, the IBM 'deathstar'. I still have one of them in my PC, it finally failed after four years, and is now sitting unused, waiting to be taken out and replaced. It was my D: Drive...
I also have another 'deathstar', unmercifully (and slowly) being taken apart so that i can examine it's innards, somewhere in my room.
EDIT: Doesn't the .Org occasionally get a spam attack of AOL pop-ups? I remember the last one being about two months ago.

In 2001, DigiScents unveiled the iSmell, a shark-fin-shaped gizmo that plugged into your PC's USB port and wafted appropriate scents as you surfed smell-enabled Web sites--say, perfume as you were browsing Chanel.com, or cheese doodles at Frito-Lay.com. But skeptical users turned up their noses at the idea, making the iSmell the ultimate in vaporware.
WHAT! That is utterly absurd. Few products literally stink, but this one did--or at least it would have, had it progressed beyond the prototype stage.

I still have a 60GXP hanging around. It basically clicks and powers down after a bout 10 minutes, then it repeatedly tries to start up again before giving up altogether.#18, the IBM 'deathstar'.

As to the AOL, Real, IE6, ME etc, I couldn't agree more. Junk products.
(The MAC "puck" mice were horrible as well.)
