It's definitely part machine.
It gives off so many sounds which hint at it being a machine.

-The Crane's sound
-The Ticking
-Air Pressure being released
-Cranking
-Gears turning
-Chattering
-Screeching of the metal
-The clicking sound. (Which has now been stated that this only happens when it's looking at the memories of one for the survivors.)

Hmm, wonder it really is, the producers of LOST better give us the answer soon. =P

I hear there may be as many as five series of lost commissioned. I hope we dont have to wait five series to find out what this monster is.

I think the Monster will be one of those mysteries which will never be explained, the survivors have absolutely no idea what it even is yet and it's not like the others are going to tell them what it is, they may not have ever even seen it.
The producers will have to explain what it is by making the survivors finally figure out what it is, if it is a creature and not a machine; that may never happen.

Personally, I now think it's a machine, the noises it makes and the shape it's arm turned into when it grabbed Eko show some proof that it's part machine. I really want to know what the numbers "4,8,15,16, 23 and 42" mean though, and what the hieroglyphics on the hatch timer mean as well.

Oh, I've read that before.
Guess what though? The producers officially announced the viewers will never find out what the numbers mean, I'll try to find the page where they said that. Kinda a put-down, isn't it?

Oh, dang.

It seems you know a lot more than me then. =P I'm still clueless to a lot.

And never? At all? That is a big let-down. =/

Yup, we'll never discover what they mean. =(
They also said the monster is "supposed" to be fully revealed at the end of Season 3, don't get your hopes up though. =P
I don't know where their going with the monster though: A massive cloud of Black-smoke which can change forms, has mechanical sounds and reads people's memories? There's way to many things to even give an answer as to what it is, at the moment it could be either two things though: A machine or something biologically alive. Here's a very good picture of it:
