I doubt that. Computers are a tool and they always will be a tool, even if
we make an R2D2. They wouldn't need anything if they had their own "soul",
but they would be proud to serve us and communicate with us to what we want
to know (perhaps telepathically). How do I know that they will serve us?
Well because we will program it to serve us and LIKE it (I'll bet Bill will
be the first to buy one!)
