I also liked his interactions with the Probe when it was still in its "infancy". He's great with kids, and the Probe automatically takes an interest in him and plays with him a little bit with the camera. Right in the middle of their game, someone shuts off the power and he goes "heeeey!"
Personally, I'm all about the AIs. I love shows with robots that act human. So I loved the first part of the show, right up until the Probe zaps into Sam. I can kind of accept that kind of thing happening, but it just gets so creepy and cold and serious after that (aside from the Probe-In-Sam saluting Jack like he did to the camera earlier).
What really bothers me is the whole "Sam in the Machine" bit, though. I just don't buy that a person's consciousness could be completely transferred into a machine and then transferred out again, with apparently no ill effects. It might have worked if they even gave us a simple "how" for it. We're just supposed to accept that It's Magic. I could picture that sort of thing happening on Farscape, but not Stargate...

Incidentally, it's pretty funny to slow-motion through the personnel files that the Probe scans through while identifying SG-1 in the briefing room. I'm fairly sure that several of the people shown are on the crew. One screen shows a guy that is apparently on SG-1 with the rank "Master". Another gives a detailed analysis of how to skin and barbeque an Unas for maximum flavor potential.
If anyone else reads anything funny off of the personnel files, I'd love to hear it.
