Wanna buy Spot?

Oh,  yeah,  I do want one of Boston Dynamics fabulous robotic canines.   I’d be satisfied with only one of the two each client is limited to,  so I would have to scratch up only $74,500.  This  link contains  interior links to some of the past videos of this contraption’s amazing abilities,  but as I have long assumed,  Spot is better suited to use as a troubleshooter in less human-friendly environments than it is to being a human companion.  However, since this very complicated and sophisticated machine has been leased to selected early adapters, Boston Dynamics has learned a lot and is now selling its creation outright.

No I need Spot?  Of course,  I don’t.  But I would adore having a Spot to walk bedside me through a mall parking lot just to catch the reactions of onlookers!
