(...) Geoff, Do you mean the Brick processor with the power jack? The only brick with the power jack is the RIS 1.0 (not sure about RIS 1.5). I can confirm that RIS 2.0 doesn't have a power jack. RIS 2.0 uses a USB infrared tower. The RIS 1.0 uses (...) (21 years ago, 7-Mar-05, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

I have now given Blender a good test, and I am hooked. The user interface is a bit weird at first, but it grows on you, and I expect it to be quite easy to use once I get the hang of it. The software features are perfect for this: GNU Free software (...) (21 years ago, 8-Mar-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) So nice to hear that, and I actually care quite a lot! I have used Lego quite a lot myself to teach computer graphics. Not CAD as such, but 3D modeling, animation and programming. Swedish M Sc students have often grown up with a large pile of (...) (21 years ago, 7-Mar-05, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)

(...) *CERTAINLY NOT* I'm horrified that you would think that. A real programmer has to find out which end of the soldering iron gets hot by 'the experimental method' (ouch!). Soldering irons are *hardware* and no real programmer would want to be (...) (21 years ago, 8-Mar-05, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) You could certainly use assembler (and presumably hex) using brickOS but I don't think it's possible with the standard firmware. Of course a true 'Real Programmer' would just dump the firmware altogether and write to the bare metal. (...) (...) (21 years ago, 8-Mar-05, to lugnet.robotics)
