I thought it was a fun thing to play with for a while, but it's probably
best for kids and not adults. It's not really very configurable -- just a
raw pre-fab skeleton that you put bricks on. It seemed to work much better
without all the brickage on it, BTW, but even then, the steering is
left/right/forward only -- no fine steering. It also doesn't run well on
rugs or carpet, and it's very noisy.
