Re: Lego Mindstorms: What went wrong?

I can see some of where he's coming from. The lack of any serious improvements to the Mindstorms line does indicate a lack of interest (at least on the surface) in the product line by LEGO. On the other hand, they could have been spending the last few years creating LEGO Vista Mindstorms.

Oh, wait, bad comparison at the end there.

Re: Lego Mindstorms: What went wrong?

One thing in the slashdot thread that makes some sense is to sell better main units. Adults are using these devices, and adults tire of only being able to use 3 motors and three sensors. Expand, compound, make more appealing units that cost lots of money!
