Actually they had to kill the project cause the beta testers couldn't tell which way to face.
There was cra* in both directions.

A choice chunk in the saga was this:

On Monday, technology Web site CNET, based on a tip, wrote that the iLoo was a hoax and quoted Microsoft spokesman Nouri Bernard Hasan as saying, 'I can confirm it was an April Fool?s joke."

from the AP story which may yet have to be revisited.
I doubt Mr Hasan has been sent to the corner.
