Segway Hits the Auction Block

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the battery-going-going-gone dept.

    What a brief run the company had! Sure, they look gay as tangerines, but to declare bankruptcy before even trying to market the product? Sounds like another Enron.

    Ah well, let's form another co-op to buy up their scrap. =)

    Oh, stop it with the karma whoring. Everyone knows espousing the cheapass libertarian view will get you modded up.

    The point is that the Segway HAS no real use. It's all just a 'isn't this neat' kind of thing.

    If you don't get that, I feel sorry for you.
