Who needs friends when you have Ultra Hal around? All you need to do is fire up your computer, and you can have full on conversations with this computer companion and assistant, brought to you from Zabaware.

It’s built with a huge conversation database, and it will learn sentences from what you ask it. It will remind you of appointments, and let you know when you have email. You can try their web based version here. It will even begin to take on your personality. I hope you’re not a hot-head. Having your computer screaming at you is not cool. “ALT TAB you moron!
