  End of 9V train line?!
 
I've been just at Germans probably best online Lego® shop www.reimann.de . They have already some of the 2001s sets for sale, but I was really shocked, when I found out, that 9V points and crossings are discontinued in 2001! Does that mean we have (...) (24 years ago, 5-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Sharp GP2D12 and Expansion Board
 
When I connect the ground to the analog input for ports 17 to 24 I still read the value 250, when I get the value 0 on any other analog port including port 16. Does this mean my 74HC4051 chip is dead??? "Robin Chahal" <rchahal@hotmail.com> wrote in (...) (24 years ago, 5-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: NELUG participates in December 2nd and 3rd Greenberg Show.
 
(...) That seemed a bit of a waste to me as well. (...) Actually this was the main reason for me. While designing my layout (in TD), most sections had 3 and 4 tracks side by side. It just didn't leave much room for roads and buildings. (...) I had (...) (24 years ago, 5-Dec-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.us.ma)
 
  No 2001 sets at TRU
 
Well I gave it one last chance to see if TRU had any 2001 sets. My luck was they didn't have any, but there was a woman from LEGO with a suitcase of LEGO banners etc.. I asked if her she was putting out the 2001 sets or the 2000.. She said "Not at (...) (24 years ago, 5-Dec-00, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: Walmart Droid Developer Kits
 
(...) My WalMart is a Super WalMart. That may have something to do with whether your local WalMart will have them or not. They were shelved right next to the regular Lego in the Toy department. John Hansen (24 years ago, 5-Dec-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

  Re: "No Contact" Homebrew Train Sensor for Mindstorms
 
At this point I don't have the sensor hooked to an RCX due to the fact that Santa hasn't brought me one yet (hint hint Santa). I currently have the sensor hooked into a Crestron Control system ((URL) The sensor is hooked to a digital I/O port that (...) (24 years ago, 5-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Unnoficial Parts (Tiles with Edge)
 
(...) Hmm. Would it be worth making subfiles for the 'blank' areas of the patterned parts? I realize these are pretty simple pieces (even with the grooves), but it would help other authors to do this. Steve (24 years ago, 5-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I'm 99% sure it's a buildup of the ERTL off-the-shelf model kit. NOT the motorized walking one, the normal one. Unfortunately, my favorite modelling website has neither photos nor reviews of the ERTL kit. eric (24 years ago, 5-Dec-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: NELUG participates in December 2nd and 3rd Greenberg Show.
 
(...) Well I can think of a couple reasons why we went with 4 wide tables (40.25"x40.25"). 1. It was more economical. If we were to do 3bp x 6bp you only get one table out of a 4'x8' sheet. This way you get 2 tables per sheet. 2. We liked the (...) (24 years ago, 5-Dec-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.us.ma)

  Re: Walmart Droid Developer Kits
 
(...) Yep, I just noticed the same thing today. Although my WM only had about 5-6 on the shelf. They were shelved in the Toys dept. Maybe TLC had a mess of them to move through the channel. Remember the $15 6180s last summer ? Ray l#124 (24 years ago, 5-Dec-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

Been to Smyths in Tallaght today. They've dropped the price of the Power Puller thing to £69.99 (£20 off?) and a cybermaster-type set (didn't get the number, it looks like a 2000 set) for £59.99. Was very tempted when I saw this one! (....wonder (...) (24 years ago, 5-Dec-00, to lugnet.loc.ie)
