We had a thread maybe two months ago about a monkey which went fully bipedal simply as a behavioral adaptation following stomach trouble. OK, its skeleton would not show much effect, maybe eventually some wear-and-tear differences--from this. Nevertheless, I don't think going fully bipedal is that hard if that's all you're doing. If anything, this is further evidence that full bipedalism preceded other changes leading to humans.
