Not a dig against Doug, just old and stale ideas. OK. Still sounds like a dig.
My quess is that the opposite is closer to the truth. Doug probably left behind enough fresh new ideas in his files to keep Segway busy for years to come. It was the frustration of not being able see things through because of financial constrants (think Centaur) that led to his looking for greener pastures. Doug's spirit will be driving Segway's evolution for years to come.
