We took apart our first two robots (1998 and 1999). We were moving into a different facility for a year, and had no place to put them. They were non-functional (the computers had been sent back), so we scrapped them and used some of the parts.
Our last three robots, (2000-2002) however, are still fully functional and are used for demos and testing purposes. One is at our sponsor's office, the other two are at our shop. They're boxed up right now, but we've hauled them out a couple of times this year. We've done some demos in the community, and also used them to teach new team members and conduct driver tryouts.
