In what Reuters says is Not a Joke, Microsoft has announced the world's
first Internet loo, coming this summer in an outhouse that will tour the
British summer music festival circuit.

Given what often gets left fecally lying around outhouses, this offers the
possibility for getting three bugs at once: bio virus, computer virus, and
buggy Win software.
