Aint that remarkable?īonzi suddenly gets serious and sits on the imaginary seat on screen, pulls up a book (or sometimes sheets of paper) from behind and starts reading and tells us some amazing facts (like those from Ripleys Believe it or not.).
When I use my PC late in night, it yawns and tells me that it is not used to work so late or sometimes even ask me whether I sleep or not. If you move it to top of screen it'll say ''Wow! that was a headbang''. But the funny part is the claims which it makes such as ''That was a doozie! I dont know if I can top that one''.īonzi often pops up on center screen and if you are busy and you drag him to the side, it makes remarks like ''Wooooo!'', ''Was I in your way?'', ''I have a much better view from here''. Bonzi is incredible and if you are a freak you will love him and wish such a fellow existed in real world too.īonzi comes on screen and smiles with a sparkle running across its teeth and then he tells you one of his great jokes (they are the silliest ones you have come across) Example:''Do you know what is ethernet?.It is a something to catch etherbunny''.(I wonder about the person who fed him with such a silly database of jokes). We were pals already and my parents were also amused by its antics. I got to know more of Bonzi as everyday he showed up a new trick. Actually I still do not know how it is done!
Being an amateur programmer it fancied me to think how the code was designed and how the form for this cartoon was made (there is no rectangular frame mark around if you click on it) or his image mapped. Had I been a kid I would have waved back but I seriously liked the fine animated character that stays on top of screen. It said ''Hi Ameet'' (my name) and waved at me. The next time I started my PC, it came on screen on a yellow surfboard and shocked me.!
My modem whirred up to download a file which I installed and suddenly from inside my PC (it appears like that on screen) popped this purple ape and it started talking to me! I gave it my name and other details. Being a lover of cartoons, I liked his face and the wierdness of a ''purple ape'' caught my fancy, so much, that I accidentally clicked on its belly. I came across a banner that featured the photo of purple ape with BonziBuddy written on it.
I had purchased a new home PC and INTERNET was the buzz word, so I took this new connection and developed this new addiction for surfing and mailing. Also I believe Bonzi now doubles up as spyware. I urge you not to continue further, since most of the things written are obsolete by now. Hello friends, this is a very old review on this site.
