wow, that looks pretty complex, but i think you would need a little more then a floppy drive to complete this task :)

Its a big thing to read but ehm. Besides the fact that its a cool robot you can control(?) does it have eny special features or things it can do. Such as carry drinks, bring the mail or clean the floor? ;D
