  The idea for the company came when Burick was building a “white box” PC from standard, off-the-shelf components, and realized there was no comparable product for robotics. ... They sold about 200 robots in 17 countries, Burick says.

  Yup. There's no volume in hobbyist robot kits.

  Wow! I am sure the kids are totally kicked and will remember this for the rest of their lives!

  We need many more of these sorts of projects - for kids as well as adults

  Their Eniac clone is cool and all, but this guy himself is just amazing.

  The computer doesn't even work. Disappointing.
