The only thing they are selling is hard drives. The modem they hype is
vaporware. And if anyone believes that this company will ever fly anything
more advanced than paper airplanes let me help you out. Just send me your
money. I'll take it to Las Vegas. You will have [largeNum]% more chance of
ever seeing it again.

Their graphic of the damn thing looks like something my 12 year old did on
the computer.

That's true, but can't you imagine the thrill of flying at 300 MPH with the
wind in your face? First bug strike will be your last!

Looks like an industrial design senior project. Would your neck even
be strong enough to handle the wind load at half that speed?

Don't volunteer until you find out what happened

Since these people are just down the street from me, and they have
very explicit directions for getting there, I'm going to drop by.

Purely in the interests of science, you understand.
