(...) Which would be easier to lug up stairs. (23 years ago, 4-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Or a really nice bike. (23 years ago, 4-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: A new way for geeks to move around
 
(...) Yeah, at that price. If they'd said "oh, and it costs $250", then okay, maybe. But no one will pay three grand for one of these things. (23 years ago, 4-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: A new way for geeks to move around
 
(...) though, it does go 12MPH... if that's an incentive. flying car, maybe, replacement for walking? i'll just buy a bike. (23 years ago, 4-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: A new way for geeks to move around

  Re: A new way for geeks to move around
 
(...) Good points, all the way around. I could understand a new transportation technology to replace cars, but why replace walking? Steve (23 years ago, 4-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: A new way for geeks to move around

  Re: A new way for geeks to move around
 
(...) It's very Jetson-y. A partial response to the question, "Hey! It's the third millenium! Where are the all the cool gadgets? Where's my flying car?" Or, it just looks geeky. You decide. Steve (23 years ago, 4-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: A new way for geeks to move around
 
(...) actually - i think you have to lean in the direction you wish to go. (according to jeanne moos of cnn) (23 years ago, 4-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: A new way for geeks to move around
 
(...) But that has nothing to do with how cool it is. I mean, you can just stand there and it moves you around. Groovy. ~Grand Admiral Muffin Head (23 years ago, 4-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
