Any bets how long it takes until the Segway will require a licence tag, and
taxes must be paid if you want to use it on public streets? And of course a
special drivers licence, there's a lot of money to be made by the
governments worldwide with this new vehicle :)

A definite "no" on banning computers... those long league races
in "pro" mode got me out jogging through the woods again to
improve my stamina ;-)

  No, it won't go that far. First will come the lawsuit to make the
smegway handicapped friendly. After they can't get it to work for a
quadriplegic it will be taken off the market and a class action lawsuit
will bankrupt the company. It won't last long enough to be taxed by the
government.

Or maybe SCO claims there's Unix code being used in the Segways' controller
unit?
