    Default Anyone see...

    That commercial for Intel with the robot wielding a straight razor like a pro and shaving a subject. Then they say lets try that again and you see the other side of the guys face full of cuts and as they adjust the computer the look of fear on his face.

    Now that's what I'm talking about. Someone needs to invent a shaving machine that works.

    So if there was one and it was foolproof and affordable would you buy it and use it or would you continue to do it the old fashioned way?

    I'm an old fashioned guy. I don't need to improve on the perfection of the straight razor wielded by the shaver's own hand.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Well, ok. In all fairness, from the time that I was 18 until I was about 25 I was amazed at how smart that my dad got, I must admit that I was rather proud of his late progress there.

    I'd have to stick with the good old fashioned way. Where's the fun in a machine doing it?!

    Shaving is just an excuse to play with extremely sharp toys, enjoying some alone time. I'll stick to the old ways thankyouverymuch.

    EDIT: Just saw the clip
    1) wrong angle.
    2) scales positioned wrongly, and apt to snag something at a crucial moment.
    3) nothing is stretching his skin.
