At first I thought it read "Experience a more productive toilet",
which is probably just as inaccurate, but more appropriate.

That would be the Microsoft iLoo? See
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2003/05/13/tech/main553567.shtml
or many other confused news reports.

I don't know. I've never experienced a toilet that produced anything under
normal circumstances. Where I live, toilets are generally consumers.

But wouldn't a productive toilet be the Microsoft way? Where do you
want to go today? For the mop.

Generally, indeed. That sort of depends on your plumbing
infrastructure, which in the case of Visual Studio would
be win32... Which leads me to conclude that VS may be the
productive sort of lavatory.
