Mad Dog it ain't

yep. i've been told i've been 'blog lazy', and who am i to argue.. sometimes real life just gets in the way. kicks, screams, claws, and gets its big ugly head in the way.
so uh.. yeah- on with the posting. saw this on slashdot: the first commercially available exosleketon. now i'm known for my rash purchases.. but this is a different beast.

pro: at ~$13,800, it's more than 1/3 less than the car i wanna get.
con: a full charge only lasts 2h40min.
con: while it does augment a wearer's strength, it's nothing approaching Dark Angel levels of leaps and bounds.
pro: it's called HAL, fer'cryinoutloud. that just exudes geekiness.
con: it looks like a walking iMac.
con: lack of arm-mounted chainguns. and jetpack.

ok, that's as far as i'm willing to take it. technology advances, yet the science is stalled, as is the norm. i guess i've got higher aspirations then being uncle robot.

If you get that exoskeleton, would we have to start calling you "oBot"?
