I do not know if anyone else was following this story, but Lego was having a lot of sales problems. This Press Release (http://www.lego.com/eng/info/default.asp?page=pressdetail&contentid=3423) states that they will not be cutting the Mindstorm line. This is good news for all.
Yean, apparently Lego is taking a page out of Apple's management playbook: How do you do you make a superior product but fail to capture the market?
