You can get a taste of machine translation by picking one of the BBC alternate language pages:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/languages/index.shtml

and running it through Google's web site translation tool:

http://www.google.com/language_tools?hl=en

I picked French, which is pretty darn similar to English compared to some of the other language choices, and I end up with phrases like this:

"It was on the pace of the fanfare and under the protection of the honor guard that the president has crossed the lawn of the gardens of the queen."
