BigDog for the win (Score: 1) by Anonymous Coward on 2014-07-21 22:22 (#2M3) I think Bryan's right - there might be a market for the military stuff, but at the moment the casual consumer has neither need nor desire for a home robot of any type. That's what makes the BigDog robot so interesting and so scary at the same time: the military potential for that beast is pretty darned obvious. I'd hate to see one bearing down on me and gaining speed. Re: BigDog for the win (Score: 0) by Anonymous Coward on 2014-07-22 00:22 (#2M4) BigDog is old news. BD has made even more terrifying robots now.

That's it, I'm moving to Japan while the rest of you guys get munched on by the honking, metallic freaks.
