Boys will be boys, with their toys, and when the question was asked, 'What do you want for Christmas?', the reply heard was, 'A LEGO Mindstorms NXT!'.
Intelligent robot, anybody?

I had the original, non self aware version of this and it was a right laugh :)
Soo much fun to have it preprogrammed to navigate the house, bump into a door in the night and then scurry back. Scared the hell outta my sister :D
Great story Dave.
It's a shame I missed the high tech Legos. I think I would have had alot of fun with them 10 years age.
All I get to play with is this:

It doesn't move much :(
/Me wants an NXT!
I'm not too certain, but I think thats what we are going to playing about with next semester for our robotics unit. We were told they were the lego mindstorm kit. Either way, looking forward to it next semester.

I get to play with this :D
The NXT does look interesting. As for robots - some metal skills, servos and motors/h-bridges and it'll move ;)
Not as much fun as a Hex programmed cpu though :)
Ironically - I wanted to get one for Xmas :)
I didn't like the way that monkey was looking at me when you said that!Quote:
