Well, i downloaded the ubuntu 6.10 i386 CD launcher. One worry though - if the OS is running on CD, does that mean i cannot save system settings, or install programs on the computer and have them lose regitration with the operating system when i shut down? Also from a development standpoint is HD partition-and-install a better option? I have been considering switching to do my AI development in C++ with linux, while doing whatever business dev for work on winXP with .net.
The reason being is .net is good for productivity and production speed, and i hear linux is a lot less bureaucratic in its execution of program commands.

Hmm, you'd probably need to make a little disk space for that. I think you can mount a windows formatted disk to store settings and files without partitioning though (but don't quote me on that - I am not even remotely an expert!) Applications would probably have to be on the CD though, unless you partitioned.
I have found another bot out there that's similar to nick, though seemingly with a lot more flexibility when it comes to cofiguration. It's called Aaron, (its the first on the CBC bot list), and takes video camera input, speech recog. and voice synthesis. it also has a sort of animated face, though not a fully functional microsoft agent. It learns with what its creator calls a "artificial reasoning network" that is made up of neurons.
