why do I feel that in 100 years we'll find this video on googletube as a huge joke on what robots used to be like, and we'll watch it with our cyborg companions. they'll always be there for us,..... not like you samantha... not like you.

I for one welcome our new crawling, wiggling, rolling robotic overlords.

I, for one, welcome the new wheel.

At first I thought the "superbot" was an engagement ring

Damn, that thing is *loud* ... wonder what that high-pitched noise is?

That would be its self-sentience program kicking in...

they're just copying the constructicons (decepticons were always ahead of their time =)

Probably digital servos, or just motors with digital control (which, with feedback, IS basically a digital servo...), because those things hum. I'm building a robot with some nice digital servos right now, and it makes the same noise. Loud as hell, and really annoying...
