Microsoft Gets Into The Plumbing Business!

No, I am NOT kidding. :-) I don't need to make things up given the world that we live in. :-)

I wouldn't think that toilets would be a hot topic of conversation but apparently they are. LOL My friend Melody recently posted about a very unique toilet.

But seriously … this is beyond belief …

Microsoft is coming out with the eToilet - which has a 21 inch flat screen monitor built into the seat. Fortunately, it swivels out when you need to do your OTHER business. :-)

Let's just hope that the toilet's 'operating system' is a little more reliable than Windows itself. I wonder what happens when the toilet crashes. Will you have to call Microsoft and wait on the phone for two hours to reactivate your license? :-)

Perhaps the toilet bowl turns blue when it crashes! The blue bowl of death … :-)

Let's also hope that it has fewer security bugs than Internet Explorer. I can definitely imagine some potential problems if a mean spirited hacker gains control of your toilet. :-)

Given Microsoft's reputation for quality, I am predicting a brand new booming vocation - eToilet repair person. Just think what you could charge when some hacker has control of all the toilets in someone's house! LOL

I think it is WONDERFUL that Microsoft has its priorities straight. After all, what is more important - a stable operating system, and a secure browser or an eToilet?
