An embedded device is for more then controlling a microwave......there is is embedded devices in more things then you think. Cell phones and PDAs have said "embedded devices" in them. So if a PDA can have one why not a robot? If you give me a really good reason. I would certainly change my view on the subject, but until then I still think embedded is the way to go.

Have you heard of cheap laptops? I went to Dell just now and saw laptop for $550, only $100 more than the current RC. If Dell became a sponsor, I'm sure they could knock another $100 off the price to match the other RC...
P.S. - I think my cell phone runs code a bit higher up than C... and I know it runs Java.
