I've seen that sort of robot/armour thing in 'Beyond Tomorrow' a show for futuristic things. Only nurses were using them to lift patients (and it was movable by bellows...).

Would be cool to have though

I wouldnt wear anything robotic called HAL, it would proabably try to kill me to insure that the eggs are boiled for exactly 4 minutes and 58 seconds because the mission is of cruitial importance.

I'm less concerned that the suit in that page is called HAL than I am with the name of the company.

Cyberdyne?

OT: I just saw the movie. The first half was kind of entertaining, and the suit itself is cool, but two thumbs down for the boss fight with the lame "monster" voice.
