Well, microcontrollers are the cool new thing, right?
I see in the
robotics club often that the response to just about any problem is,
"Oh, ok, we'll just drop in a microcontroller"
"No, Nargato ,( an artificial human ) is way different in specs compared to four
PC's."

Even from the point of si-fi you don't throw in a micro chip.
