I think it's funny how much more impressive to me the typing was than any of the gripping action. It's like I'm making a morbid calculation that if I lost my pinky, it would be okay that I couldn't use a cocktail shaker as well anymore, but how would it affect my typing?
Though I suppose in jwz chosen line of work the cocktail shaker might still be an important question. =)

It's gotta be chrome.

I, for one, welcome our new robo-dactylic overlords?
Robo-tactylic? (6 million dollar Mr. McFeely!)
Cyborgs rock.
