    Only $9000.

    I'm sure we've all seen Terminator / Sarah Connor, Bladerunner etc. What's not to like?
    While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

      We have sex with blow-up dolls, so I don't see why robots should be a problem.

      Edit: "We" should be replaced with "some of you". Not me of course <cough>

        I think sex with robots will be ok as long as it is not powered by Windows. It would be frustrating having "programme not responding" or "installing updates and reboot" at the wrong moment.

          What's there not to like ?
          do your bidding, make the tea, sex on demand, & if it all get too much you can just switch them off

          get two and watch them perform

          How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

            The three finger salute could be fun though...

                At least you'd know it would go down on you.

                  There is a brilliant episode of Futurama where Fry gets himself a robotic Lucy Liu:

                  Fry: Did you hear that? She likes me.
                  Professor Hubert Farnsworth: Well Duh, she's programmed to like you.
                  Fry: But this is Lucy Liu, perhaps the only good actress of the 20th century. She's more then just a piece of software.
                  Lucy Liu robot: Would you like to take a moment to register me?
                  Fry: Hmm, not right now.
                  Lucy Liu robot: [tussling Fry's hair] I'll remind you later, you hot stud you.
                  Lucy Liu-bot: You're cute!
                  Fry: No, you are!
                  Lucy Liu-bot: No, you!
                  Fry: No, you!
                  Professor Hubert Farnsworth: Oh dear, she's stuck in an infinite loop and he's an idiot! Oh well, that's love for you, I guess.

                    Not too sure about these sorts of robots, I know they are working on it in Japan (to keep astronauts company I think?). In the previous unis I was at they're working on football robots alongside EU partners and also a robot that can learn by itself and develops (brain) like a child. I think it's far too early for any commercial interests and too costly. Other work being done was for the military (robots scouting for intelligence and transporting things with long distance jumping in difficult terrain).

                    The child robot btw is run through a linux distro not Windows, and a low level C like language.
                    I have finished my studies and I'm looking for work. If anyone's interested:

                    - I make excellent coffee.
                    - I'm ethically flexible. Very open-minded.
                    - I live within my means, no financial risks, no gambling.
                    - I don't have a religion, so no sneaky conversion attempts.
                    - I buy the first round.
                    - Easily adaptable to new groups, environments... go with the flow type.
