I Dare Say, It Rather Suits You.

This special suit — a POWER SUIT if you will — allows its wearer to have Bionic Woman-like strength. Perfect for emergency rescues, or when you've done too much shopping at Costco (sans car) and can't be bothered sending everything home.

I think that it is both awesome and amusing that a Japanese company has not ONLY chosen to name their company Cyberdyne (incidentally the name of the engineering company in Terminator that creates artificial intelligence which ends up being intelligent AND evil, destroying humankind), it has also named its fancy power suit "HAL", which incidentally happens to be an artificial intelligence that kills a whole bunch of people in Arthur C. Clarke's Space Odyssey.

I wonder why no one told them in advance: "I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that."

More info on the suit here.
