HAL Mech Suit Hits Production, To Increase Human Strength Tenfold
What’s blue and white and has the strength of superhero? The answer, will soon be a human sporting a Cyberdyne Corporation suit. While the name of this Japanese firm, taken from the evil corporation in the movie Terminator, may make some a bit uneasy, its hard to fault its dream — bringing to life the dreams of mech suits that military and fictional minds have had for decades.
Cyberdyne has partnered with Daiwa House to finally bring its HAL (Hybrid Assistive Limb) suit into mass production. The company plans on offering 400 of the units, which are expected to be in short supply, to private and government buyers, at a cost of $4,200 for the suit.

Run from me if you want to live!
Wasn't HAL the insane computer that killed all humans?

I seriously WANT one of those.
Given my failing health and the annoyance of being stuck in a wheelchair more and more often, I'd shell out $4200 in a split SECOND for the ability to not only go about my life as normal, but with improved capabilities.
You have any idea how tricky pushing a shopping cart can be from a wheelchair or on crutches ?
Such little simple things, and yet, such damn important things.. at least to me.

$4200 must be a taxpayer subsidy of $100,000 each.
Japan is not allowed to build offensive military weapons since WW2, so they hide their military in plain sight, just like Nazi Germany after WW1. That what Honda is for.
Cyborgs versus Terminators versus Clones. Ordinary humans will soon be extinct?

Being already of sufficient artificial composition to be classed as a "cyborg" as it is, why shouldn't I wanna take it to the top, neh ?
