Yeah I know this too, quite old indeed, but very impressive. Impressive too
is their Petman, see how it (he ?) walks. Quite freaking...

Boston Dynamics really rocks. And when army gives money, you can build
awesome things.

If you also want really nice and powerful robot, take a look at PR2 from
Willow Garage. It can play pools, bring a beer, etc... It runs ROS software,
open source, very fun to use and develop with. For me, it looks like the
most advanced existing robots. Even if it doesn't walk, it is much more
useful IMO.

 I've done several tests running ROS on my Nokia N900 (
http://code.google.com/p/ros-n900/) and its webcams (face detection in
particular), it's impressive how "easy" it can be.


Cheers,
Seb
