      By the looks of it it was pretty much a sales gimmick to present actual Honeywell computing machines.

    It's obviously fake. Doing "the robot" must have been a popular dance move in 1968. I find it funny that the cable and connections used to connect the "robot" to the controls looks like a telephone cable used for old office telephone systems. How convenient.
