You know, if the thing ended up costing $150,000 (after all the planned "improvements") it would still be cheaper than my ex-wife.

She looks pretty good, but what about the one behind... early prototype? Seems to be having a problem holding its head upright.
That's not a flaw... that's a built-in design requirement.
Did you notice whether or not she has a flat head?

If they use a Microsoft operating system, they'll definitely be blondes.

This could be Data's great granma.
When they start making replicants, I'll take a Rachael...

I wonder if her eyeballs are functinal or is that cambera behind the man the real "eyes".
It seems not much more than just another disney animatronic.
Those Japanese sure are creative.
(weird.)

I just kind of assumed that Japanese females already ARE androids. My co-worker's/company vice-president's son has wed a lovely, sweet girl from Japan, so...

But if it looked like a 14 year old......

Seven of Nine? You must mean the one the rest of the crew called "Seven of 36D."

Yes, but is she fully functional like Data?
