Microsoft Bob

From OLPC

Microsoft Bob was a product released by Microsoft in March 1995 as an adventure game-like interface for performing tasks on one's computer. Despite its ambitious nature, Bob failed to penetrate the market and is widely considered a major failure for Microsoft. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has admitted as much, naming Bob as one project "we [had] undertaken ... where we decided that we have not succeeded and let's stop."
