My Troubles Are Over

BEIJING, Oct 10, 2006 (AFP) - A company in south China has developed the nation's first cooking robot, equipping it with the skills to cook thousands of traditional dishes, state media said Tuesday.
The robot, developed by Fanxing Science and Technology Co. in the city of Shenzhen, knows how to "fry, bake, boil and steam, and can perform other special Chinese cooking actions," Xinhua news agency reported. At a recent show arranged by the company, the robot cooked a dish of "beautifully-flavored, attractive-looking" shrimp in five minutes, according to Xinhua. The robot will hit the market in 2007, targeting mainly fast-food restaurants, while a family-friendly version for the general public will go on sale later.
The Chinese can't even make TV sets that don't explode, so I'll take this article with -- you should excuse the expression -- a grain of salt.

Yeah but I'm praying it will work, not that I want to give the commies any more of my money, I just can't stand my own cooking
