At the risk of being superstitious: doesn't it bother anyone that HAL is the (partial) name of the crazy computer in the Space Odyssey saga and the manufacturer Cyberdyne is a reminiscent of Cyberdyne Systems Corporation, which in the Terminator universe is responsible for the killer terminators?

It's probably intentional, as the manufacturer is founded by a self-admitted science-fiction enthusiast. 217.211.88.20 ( talk) 09:53, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
I noticed it too. Here's a similarly named company, manufacturing Ai chips, and the CEO is called Dr. Miles Bennett Dyson. link UPDATE: it was an april fools joke.
i just learnt of the HAL system. it does seem ironic having a helpful peiece of tech named after 2 phsycotic human killing AI's but hey its a great marketing ploy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.91.9.153 ( talk) 23:22, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: moved to Hybrid Assistive Limb. There seems to be consensus that the article needs moving. WP:AT#Article title format suggests we should use abbreviations so "Hybrid Assistive Limb" seemed the best of the suggestions. Dpmuk ( talk) 22:25, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
