i love buttons and gadgets, and layouts like that. i think it's very old school though. as with our cars, the future is with not as many separate screens, more integrated display panels with menus, and heads-up displays.

Very cool! Wonder why it has a small panel that says Canada on it, with a Canadian flag, though....

If I recall correctly, the robot arm was manufactured by Canada.
