I'm trying to install NXT software on a new machine from the NXT 2.0 CD, and
from reading around it sounds like there have been some updates.  Unfortunately,
the Lego site only has EV3 software.  You can find pages that talk about the NXT
software, but when you click the Download links you get directed to EV3
downloads.

Is the NXT software totally out of support, or is there some hidden location
where I can get the updates?  I'm trying to install from official sources if at
all possible.

That's where I started.

Clicking on Download on that page takes you to another page that says NXT.
Clicking Download on that page takes you to a page that says you're about to
install the EV3 software.

This is where I stopped the first time.  But as it turns out, if you click the
Download link on that page then you really do get the NXT file.

Anyway... thanks, Steve.  Nice to hear there are still familiar faces/names
here, and even actively reading.
