Subject: [DPRG] Personal Robot Design ... Bill-Bot?
From: Pay_the_Piper pay_the_piper at shaw.ca

Bill Gates wants to get into the soon-to-be $50 b/yr PR market. But why not 
use all that AI brain power at MS, buy the rights to "Number Five" for a few 
million and put the R&D money into SW for Number Five so that it will make 
all the same moves as the hero in the movie "Short Circuit"?

I would pit the personality and charm of Number Five as a desk top 
peripheral against Robosapien any day. Give it VIVO and camera eyes for HW 
options in various grades and voila!

But can it beat Hillary-for-President in 2008?
