gravitar Posted November 12, 2005 Report Posted November 12, 2005 I was just thinking about something the other day. Not exactly sure why, but.. How is it that a company that made computer modems ended up with a name like "US Robotics"? Were they ever in the robotics business? Has anyone ever seen a US Robotics robot? As far as I know of, all they ever made was phone modems and related equipment. Quote

TConnolly Posted November 14, 2005 Report Posted November 14, 2005 The real irony being that Asimov was born in Petrovichi Russia. IMO, Asimovs use of the corporation name, US Robot, is actually a plurality play on the book title. Quote
