Maker of iToaster Closes
Microworkz.com, maker of a low-price personal computer called the iToaster, has closed and is under investigation by the Washington state attorney general. Microworkz.com founder Rick Latman said via e-mail Thursday that his closely held company has shut down. He declined to provide further details. The Washington attorney general’s office said it filed suit against the closely held company last month, accusing it and Latman of engaging in illegal and deceptive practices. Consumers have complained that the Lynwood, Wash.-based company took their money and failed to deliver computers, honor warranties or issue refunds.
