Clippy already was a big step in the wrong direction from Microsoft, i'm not gonna celebrate mistakes of the past because they seem benign in comparison to todays mistakes.

Clippy wasnt a bad idea, especially in an era where computers were just becoming mainstream. But just like most microsoft's products, the poor implementation made it useless and annoying...
