>Thank you for that Steve I must admit I had never heard of the Arb! Is it true >that the Novag Robot threatens you if you beat it? and is it your favorite? well,the Novag Robot was the only computer ever released to have an "Emotions" feature with this feature engaged..the computer will try to distact you while you are thinking..by movings its Robotic Arm suddenly and without warning,all the while beeping and flashing various lights if you lose to the Robot it will raise the arm in victorious triumph and beep gleefully,with lights flashing like a Xmas tree if it loses it makes a sad weeping sound and slowly drags its arm across the board in humiliated defeat some collector's have reported that their Robots(when in a hoplessly lost position) have actually lashed out in anger with the grasping claw dangeroulsy close ..too close for comfort i have never seen this but perhaps it was an upgrade i didnt get? :)) Steve
