Own Your Wee Li’l Linux Penguin
Electronics company Kysoh came out with a penguin droid–who else it would be but Linux’s Tux? The Tux droid is a little robotic toy that talks and moves. It connects to your Linux box (via fish USB dongle!) so you can configure it to do all sorts of stuff. It also uses python as a programming language for its software hacks.
The Tux droid, though, is more of a toy, rather than a appliance. As one reviewer points out though, its novelty will rarely run out especially for tinkerers AND hackers.
I think I want one.
