Galactic Robotics
"The damn GROBOT is on the fritz again. It must be recycled, it keeps asking me if I want to party. It's voice is nice and all but it's a cargo loader. I don't think it has the hands to do what it thinks I want it to do..."
~Sam Groman, Dockside Supervisor on Arega Station
The Second Best in Robotics
Vanguard Dynamics makes big metal death machine robots, GR makes the second best. AstraTech Industries makes line infantry and cargo loading robots, GR makes the second best. Johnson, Wilde, and Pomegarde Group make the best drones, GR makes the second best. GR gets by on their lack of innovation primarily by adoptin a 'second mouse gets the cheese' policy. They watch new models for glitches or hidden expenses and then market their own off-brand copies of them, just different enough to (usually) avoid a copyright war.GReg
The GR mascott, GReg the GRabby C-Rab is instantly recognizable, has a slew of children's vids and has generally been a success in marketing. His kitschy little phrases have permeated the pop culture space and he has a place of importance in the Memetics of the PSC. It might be because of the beloved cultural importance of GReg that GR's much stronger competitors haven't been able to stage a final blow against the company; nobody wants the PR nightmare that comes with being the company that killed GReg.
