Mom rocks! Dominic kept doubting that he would like his present, because I kept telling him it was black underwear with ones and zeros on it. Our geeky kid didn't want binary underwear for his birthday. Someday I may not be able to buy him a present he likes but thus far I have nailed it everytime. I would like to point out that you don't have time to fiddle with a robot anymore than you do with a Linux machine. It would just sit there like the airplane I got for you. You will have to just share with the boy and in a few weeks you can have little geek fests together discussing the many merits of acurate variable declaration, and excellant code formatting. Who knows where it will lead. When we are old then you can sit and fart around with robots and Linux machines to your little hearts content! Think how much cooler the technology will be then. I have my sites set on sending the boy to work in two years, another 20K a year out of a 15 year old. Yippee! I figure a year of this, then I can move him onto something a little more marketable like C++ or C#. He's mine until 18, I have plans, I have an agenda. I know how to accomplish my goals. It all starts with an innocent techie gift and ends with considerable cash flow improvement. HA HA Malevolent Mom strikes again! I found this gift and ordered it. Mom rocks!
