| | | | | Hey,
I have the same question! I've been driving myself crazy for the last few
days trying to find some information on the subject. I sent an e-mail to
Markus Noga, the author of LegOS and he said it doesn't support USB, only
serial. I cant even seem to find any good resources on how to program USB on
win32.
I think lego is phasing out the serial tower - I don't see them in stores
any more. I hope someone can help us USB folks out!
Thanks!
Michael

There are some japanese guys that did USB support for NQC under windows,
it's rather simple (essentially open a device with a particular name).
Under Linux it is just not clear how easy it is until somebody tries.

Here (France & Germany) there are still only RIS 1.5s in the shops.

In the worst case you can always try to swap towers with somebody
who has a surplus serial tower.
