Except that they look like they'd still be slower than a person doing the same job. Admittedly they'd be more precise and dependable, but I'm not convinced they'd actually be cheaper, at the moment.

I think the key thing is how the power and technical support / repair costs compare to labor costs. I doubt it is a win yet though.
