ChipNoir:
If he does get a humanoid body, that's gonna make me think further about human/AI romance potentials. I did think the chasis that Hanelor's dad sent was a little bit cute, but since that arc was nixed very quickly, it kinda faded from my mind.

But now I gotta wonder about myself: Could I get into a relationship with a male identified AI? Not Winslow of course. He's so chipper and naive that he comes off as childlike. But there's been other AI's floating about in the background, so it's giving me time to pause. Especially since this could be something in our lifetime.

Course I'll be a 90 year old fart by then, so its creepy any way you slice it. Sigh.

Oooh...  Winslow (re-)joining the humanoid chassis ranks?  The shopping alone should be entertaining. :)

And, oh my gosh, has it really been that long (2007!) [http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1012] since then...?

That was a long time ago!
But now the speculation can begin - what sort of body would Winslow want?

Let's see - what's Winslow like? - "Refreshingly sane compared to Pintsize" is his description in the cast list. Also a little bit innocent - or he was before he met Pintsize - probably a bit jaded by now  :wink:
Always the voice of reason, but with a sense of humour.
He has an owner with access to extreme wealth, so there wouldn't be any of the reliability problems of May's chassis, or Marigold's shock when she heard the price of Momo's chassis...

I reckon he'd go for: reliable, straightforward, no bells and whistles.
He's a quiet type, so nothing showy or particularly physically imposing - so probably an average to small build.

Hey, he could end up looking like Clinton before his makeover...  :laugh:

Hanners' dad's organization is the one behind AI.  Even if the Military is using the most advanced versions, the new developments are coming from Ellicot-Chatham Inc.

Welu:
I got the impression the proto-bot was essentially a hobby project Hanners' dad did by himself. So it wouldn't have had the whole organisation working on it.

I'm all excited to see what kind of bodies Winslow will try out. We might see more of the singing AI at the store Marigold and Momo went to before.
