    My definition of hard drive is something that has all it's components in place, meaning it works.
    If I remove a head, Or let's say the casing, would it remain a hard drive?

    ...it's quite possible bonobo's (a type of chimpanzee) do create verbal sounds...

    Bonobos are NOT a type of chimpanzee!
    They are as chimpanzee as we humans.
    Though the chimpanzee and the bonobo's evolution separated later than the time humans seperated from them

    As much as you can play doll or throwitatdadwhenheisnotlooking with a tech gadget
    I grew up on television and computers and amongst it's not small amount of advantages, it hinders some very important abilities too
    But tech stuff is one thing, a toy is a toy whatever it's made of, but:

    1. Everything related to movies, commercials, TV etc. is unhealthy, and I say that from experience. You would be astonished how many lies things like TV have pushed deep into your thoughts. I have to clean out a junkload of trash not related to real life when I'm making a judgment on anything. Putting these into happy meals is one step further to making confused drones out of children, and as a parent you have less and less possibilities to keep your kid away from the stuff (they shove it in their faces basicly).

    2. From the environmental point of view. I hate plastic toys, especially the low-budget crappy ones, because they get thrown away every other day because of a new toy. What a waste of precious resources! And what do they want now? A portable computer next to every happy meal to promote movies, once-usable mobile phones (or get a new mobile phone every year or your teenage friends will laugh at you) etc. And don't tell me this gadget will change anybody's life or remain the best toy through a kids lifetime. It'll get thrown away the next day because of the portable "have-a-girlfried-in-your-pocket", free with every double sized cheeseburger.

    This is not the life I'd want, luckily it's not me who's getting it

    I bet the inventor of this idea hasn't met a lot of children. It's like putting an MMC card with some stupid commercial into a kinder surprise egg. They replace the fun with some tech mania
