'Serenity'
Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

I want it to toss me Leia in the slave girl bikini.
Damn. ND ftw.

Well, at some point, you have to plug your game console into it, too. Or your computer, to program it or display stuff from your computer.
How about just having it toss your salad?
