In refreference to Pintsize's architechture, two words: blue tooth.
His mother board could be cloud-sourced to the sub-etha network for all we know! He's a fictional comic relief robot, don't worry to much about where is parts go. Newegg.com doesn't carry them. (I know, I've checked.)

I admit it, I just want Raven back.

Bluetooth (which is actually one word) is the arthritic* snail of wireless comms. Pintsize would need something way faster.
*Yes, I know snails have no joints, and so by definition cannot suffer from arthritis, but you know what I mean.

A true collectors item! FDIV bug and everything. Boots up from a 3 and a half inch floppy in one tenth of the time used by this presumably reasonably up-to-date dualcore 2GHz laptop running XP.

A tool that does what you need it to do is useful even if old. I'm writing this post on a 1999 purple ("Grape") iMac I got for thirty bucks at a PC Salvage store. Stuffed in a ten-buck 512MB stick in it, and viola- my daily QC addiction without tying up an extra PC in the house.
My "main" writing computer is a circa 1994-1995 Mac 6400. Uses one of the most fantastic, heaviest keyboards I've ever used, the Apple Extended Keyboard.

Agreed. Hopefully that chassis was empty before he cerealed it.

Have we hit a comic singularity discontinuity?
Marten did use his torso as a cereal bowl at one point, while his head was vehemently protesting. That also suggests that the torso does not contain anything vital. I agree that in 1414 with the torso open it does look like the motherboard is in there.

When Hannelore foolishly stuffs Pintsize with too much RAM, Marten strikes Pintsize a good un' the back of the head, and the teeny terror spits the ramstick out. Where the RAM be, there be ye motherboard, me hearties! Although we be assumin' the wee monster's other ram be soldered on.
