Differences from the Original
BonziBUDDY Rewritten's Speak Window has multiple button for him to speak in 4 different voices, which are Normal (labeled as Speak), Whisper, Think, and Monotone. There's also a reset button, incase his voice glitches out, and also stop button. The original, just has a "Speak" and "Close" button.
BonziBUDDY Rewritten's calendar just uses a big version of the Windows Forms calendar. Unlike BonziBUDDY Rewritten, the original BonziBUDDY uses a custom made calendar for saving/editing appointments, tasks, or events.
The original BonziBUDDY has 7 wooden buttons at the left side of the main form, which are labeled "Home", "Entertainment", "Sports", "Travel", "Games", "Finance". If you were to click these buttons, it would redirect you to different sections of the original Bonzi Software website. The rewritten version, has 4 buttons, with only 1 of them being from the original software, and the other 3 being fanmade. They're labeled "Home", "TMAFE Home", "Get BlobBUDDY", and "Get MaxALERT Rewritten".
The original BonziBUDDY lacks the features that the rewritten has, such as the Themes, About Window, Play Animations Screen, the Stop Actions, and the "Run .MSH" option. While BonziBUDDY Rewritten, lacks the E-Mail features, Talking Addon Module, and the Entertainment Center with it being replaced with just the "Play Audio" feature.
The wooden button on the top right of the screen of the original had the words "Check for New Add-ons.", while the rewritten version has the words "Check for Updates..." instead.
The storybook files in the rewritten version are stored in XML, while the original stores the storybook's code in Binary.
