A Real Transformer?

    I do think you certainly meant trailer ... I checked dictionary.com and there was no entry for trailor...

    *sigh* I figured /. editors would be able to spell in the first place, preview their work, or at the least, use a spellcheck in 2005. You always bug me about using the damn preview comment feature, so use it yourselves :)

    I must say I like the video. Looks neat. I especially love the part when the transformer is about to drive right off the table. Shame it can't transform into a plane and fly away into outer space or something like that. Call me and wake me up when I can fit in one of these things.
