LONDON — Thanks to Microsoft, Internet fans at music festivals across Britain will be able to fill their minds while they answer nature's call.
The iLoo portable potty comes with flat-screen plasma display, waterproof wireless keyboard and WiFi broadband Net access.
"At the moment, it's purely a promotional stunt, just a bit of fun," said Ben Philipson, a spokesman at Microsoft's MSN unit, which hopes to boost online subscriptions.
He said the company is building a prototype that will travel to festivals around Britain this summer.
The iLoo will have a Windows XP-powered computer under the sink with a connection to six-channel surround sound. The flat-screen plasma display will swivel out from the side of the outhouse.
A guard will be stationed outside to prevent theft.
