Microsoft Software to Control Giant Robot!

I told you in April, 2004, and February, 2006, about the giant T-52 Enryu robot from the Japanese company Tmsuk (pronounced "schmuck") -- I also linked to amazing video of this monster machine tossing cars around. Now, Tmsuk is TEAMING UP WITH MICROSOFT to develop a common development and control environment for robots, which Tmsuk hopes to use across all its robots -- including T-52 Enryu (which can crush your skull between thumb and forefinger).

Wouldn't it be nice if you can throw in an off-topic bit about the current number of bugs outstanding in MS software! ;-)

Mike, you're slipping! Where's the closing "I want one!"?

I almost said it. Fact is, I do want one!

I'd want one, without the Microsoft.

Good thing it's not Apple software, it would probably crash, killing everyone near it as it twitched and heaved about.
