This cute little beasty was (perhaps) the first personal robot available. It featured two large wheels, sensors, lights, bells, and even a pen it could raise and lower at will. I've always wanted one of these guys but never had the computer to control it (`til now). Does anyone know if the company is still in business? If there's a hidden depot of unbought turtles around? Does anyone have one gathering dust, lonely and forlorn, that would like a good home? Send all info direct to me (we don't get most newsgroups). Just in case the header is wrong (it's been known to happen) I can be reached at tektronix!dadla!toc. same as it ever was, to'c
