enters robotics race[/url]
I can imagine it now:
-- Rebots that randomly drop pots and pans
-- Gives you food poising
-- Lets your dog of its lead and doesn't help catch it
ect..
Add to the list... :)

SNIP
will all their robots come with CTRL-ALT-DEL buttons & a monitor to display the
'bluescreen of death'?
"Windows cannot find the program 'chores.exe'; please download more virus prone
patches for the other patches that didn't work, or else the robot will go
insane."

Too easy!
* Invites burglers into the house - although there is an optional
accessory (which unfortunately you can only rent by the month)
that will make the robot frown and wag it's finger at them
sternly.
* If it finds robots from other manufacturers in your house it
will rewire your household power to 220v ready for their next
recharge cycle.
* It can vacuum your floors - but only if you buy Microsoft(tm)
carpets, chairs and tables.
* Periodically, it's wheels will spontaneously fall off - but the
manual will tell you that you should routinely remove and replace
the wheels for "stability" reasons - so this is in fact perfectly
normal. For some bizarre reason, people will believe this is what
all robots are like.
* People will buy hideously expensive robotic pets which don't work
all that well - while there are free dogs and cats available at
every pound that work much better.
...oh - wait, no - that's Sony.
