(...) IANAL, so I may be way off base, but I wouldn't worry quite as much about that image, for several reasons: 1) It's got a blinking "Search..." on the side; it's not a static image of a brick.

Well, I've built a small "droid" from it now. And I have to admit, since it is a Technic kit, it was fun. It is only a little smarter than a Technic kit that only has a motor because of its programs (such as they are) and the light detector - but, (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)
