Yes, I remember exactly which model you think of. It was the NOVAG Robot (not from Scisys/Saitek). It came on the market parallel to the NOVAG Savant. Both were "early" chess computers, around 1981 I think, but the design was excellent. They could have appeared in Space Odyssey 2001. The Robot had this crane, and the Savant had a little touch sensitive LCD Board. I would want the Robot to be reissued with some RS/6000 and Deep Blue chips for US-$ 99,--. Regards, M.Scheidl
