this sounds kinda dumb, only because when i used to use windows, i was always trying to kill the $@#$@#$@#$@# things that popped up on the screen and tried to help me (IE, clippit).

if you need a animated human (with or without clothes) to tell you when you have an appointment, i think you should work more on getting a bit organized, than trying to make something that already exists (bonzi buddy).

hell, a PDA is more useful. my dad has a Palm V, whenever he has something, it beeps, he'll pull it out, and go "ok, i have to go to bob's house and help with his computer at 12." plus, a PDA you can bring with you, a stupid little program that wastes resources can stay on your computer, which doesn't do you much good if you're at school / work / out / etc.

you gotta think about what the benefits and the wastes are, and this idea just has no good points that I can see, and if it does have any, the definitely don't outweigh the pointlessness of it.
