It's called the Nautilus Step walker, the first time I saw it I was skeptical, meh another stupid cardio thingy for the Gym Tourists, but than I saw a friend of mine on it and he said it's the best Cardio machine he ever had, so I tried it out and I tell you guys that thing rocks:
It works like a Treadmill but the "band" you walk on split in the middle and the two parts go up and down, so it feel like you are walking uphill and at the same time get up steps. :o :o :o
a) There is practically no pain in the joints
b) You are somehow walking upwards but at the same time as on the step machine, it's much much harder than you first believe.
c) Speed doesn't go higher than 6.4 what is perfect for fatloss and it keeps those annoying *I run like an elephant and don't care what sound the treadmill makes* guys (or fat girls)
I have found out that you can intesivy the workout even more when you not hold on but try to walk free hand and lean slightly forward.
I'm more the kinda guy that believe what was good for the guys and gals years ago will be good today, than believe in all new things, but damn that thing is good.
I'm sure of you have that thing in your gym, it's extremely pricy but damn it's good.

Actually it's the gym version of the Bowflex treadclimber made by the same company for home use. The Nordictrack is an incline treadmill.

Ya, those are the two best i've used, along with a torture machine called the Versa Climber. The best NYC gym Chelsea Piers has multiples of each, most of which are avoided 'cause they're too tough. The Cybex is like the Precor ellipticals with some extra benefits. The Precords are pretty good too if used on an incline, and are considered less gruelling by some.
The Nautilus step walker/treadclimber looks good-like the home Boxflex version version but more durable.

I've used a Versa Climber. Thing kicked my ass, so I came back and used it again at a lower level, still kicked my ass! I like that it works me that hard, but oddly enough I find that thing to be the most monotonous machine even over walking on a treadmill. :-\ Weird but true. That's why I didn't use it much while the gym I was at had one. Then I moved gyms where there wasn't one for 3 years, and now I have access to them again. Maybe I'll be brave and jump on one again, one of these days.

This is actually the Treadclimber not called a Step Climber. Nautilus came out with the home version a few years back and were selling them on TV. Sold a zillion of them and now have a commercial series the T916. The T916 is awesome. We do allot with Nautilus and have these. The StepMill from StarTrac though is the cardio workout.
