Japanese hardware sales, Feb. 5 - Feb. 11: Robo-France 29 edition
As our technological wonders ever expand into dazzling and exciting new realms, we here at the Fanboy can't help but think we're all going to get replaced some day by bitchin' robots with chrome chestplates. We made the mistake, however, of mentioning this to our superiors, and they think it's a great idea. So great, in fact, that they wanted to give it a trial run by applying the most advanced artificial intelligence the world has ever known. The transcript is as follows (click after the break to see the rest):

SmarterChild (5:26:43 PM): Talking about me is a lot of fun, but can't we talk about something else?
