75. Please buy one! I invested in IRBT after reading that they also made military robots.
The PackBot, like the one in the opening of "The Hurt Locker," is one of theirs. I said to myself, "Military bots, there's a growth industry." When I looked into it, I found they are making several other lines of robots. All I had heard of before was the Roomba, which clearly has not saturated its market. They're on, I think, the fifth generation of that bot.

Personally, I think they need to cross breed it with a Dyson. Then they'll have something.

Oh, and why do cats love to ride them so much?
