I don't think it came near prototype stage unless you count a seven second
suggestion at a meeting which was immediately struck down. Then the guy was
fired.
Its a Fig Newton of someone's imagination. Down to the detailed specs.
Made-up off the top of some guys head at 3 in the morning who had nothing
better to do than to mess with people.

The definition of a rumor is something which should be ignored.
This doesn't even have the right to call itself a rumor.
I'd call it a virus.
And it infected my computer because I just spent two  minutes typing this.
