Hi!
I have given QC a try and noticed that after shutting the RCX off and
restarting it, one does not go back to the QC application, but the ROM routines
are in control. I suppose some vectors have to be adjusted in order to not let
that happen?
thank you

Thanks for the tip.
Picked up the Sith at half price, a droid fighter.
They had some town and rock raiders too, but I wasnt interested.
Very annoying, as you comment, that none of this stuff was 'advertised' in any
way. You only found out if you punched in the numbers to their stock checker.
Not all sets were reduced, and many were out of stock.

Hi!
Could anyone please explain a little how the dynamic loading facility works in
legOS? I don't seem to get at full grip on it... and I can't test it either,
right now...
Is there a loader on the RCX?
Can apps be downloaded to the RCX whithout reloading the kernel too?
How about having several apps running simultaneously?
Are the apps tailored to a specific kernel build (by means of GENLDS)?
In other words, when downloading the kernel, does it wait then for an app, more
or less like the original firmare?
thanks
/Vlad
