fwiw, the official SW website (http://www.starwars.com/droids/astromech/) says
of "Astromech Droids"
"...There are several models in production, but the basic design involves a
cylindrical body topped by a domed swiveling head. Astromechs move about on
two treaded roller legs, and a third, retractable leg is often included for
stability. "
It also has entries which detail "Battle Droid", "Protocol Droid"
and "Interrogator Droid"
We now return you to the originally scheduled discussions.
