  Re: www.legodirect.com <--- whats going on?
 
(...) Why? The internet is for more than talking about Lego. Legopolis-> leg-opolis -> Leg city. Perfectly reasonable name for a porn site. It's not like it was Lego-opolis. eric (26 years ago, 10-Feb-00, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: RCX adapter polarety and voltage?
 
Don't know the polarity, but standard AC adapters work. I just found out today that a 9VDC 230 milliamp AC adapter isn't enough to drive one motor under heavy load - the RCX will stop with a "battery fail" icon in the LCD. A 9VDC 700 milliamp (...) (26 years ago, 10-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: How much memory finally? ADDENDUM

  Re: Where have all the Flowers Gone... Long time passing...
 
Don't forget the obvious omission - TULIPs. You'd think with TLC being European they would have STARTED with tulips, not generic flowers.

  Re: Most Inspiring Anime/Manga Poll
 
(...) You should check out some of the other Gundam mecha. It's true that many of them are heavily ornamental, but if you scour through some of the 20-odd different series, you can find more "military" looking mecha. Some of my favorites: Zeta (...)
