dont joke Mark

the Novag Robot has an "Emotions " feature
the only computer ever released to have this feature
when this feature is engaged, if it sees it is in an inferior position, the
Robot will try to distract the player by making low pitiful beeping tones and
waiving its arm in an eratic unpredictable manner also flashing lights on the
side panel

when it smells victory(a forced mate for example) it raises its arm in glorious
triumph and makes very annoying gleeful taunting  sounding tones

when it sees certain defeat..it has been known,on occassion, to take a swipe at
the player..claw open

Always Play It At A Safe Distance Regards
