  RE: Wot no RCX power connector?
 
(...) I'm not sure if its worth complaining about...operationally its still the same product even if you can't plug it into a wall wart. I'm more concerned with any changes to the ROM. Perhaps Kekoa can shed some light on this if someone was to ship (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  RE: Wot no RCX power connector?
 
(...) It still says "RCX 1.0" on it. It appears identical in all regards to pictures I've seen online, except the end opposite the IR transceiver is totally smooth and blank, and there are two extra studs on top above where the socket was. That end (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Wot no RCX power connector?
 
Did you buy a second RCX, or a second RIS? (The RIS is the big MindStorms set; the RCX is just the "programmable brick." You either got a great price on the RIS {salivating} or a lousy price for the RCX ... --Doug Wilcox -----Original Message----- (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: S@H airplanes
 
Quick follow up. The S@H rep did ask me how I heard about set. I did say "a Lego newsgroup on the Internet", but I should have mentioned LUGNET specifically. -- Bryan Larry Pieniazek <lar@voyager.net> wrote in message (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Wot no RCX power connector?
 
That's terrible! I've found the AC adapter plug to be very useful. We use the AC adapter port primarily to conserve batteries while programming/testing our RCX. I also once tried to avoid having to re-download the firmware and my programs by (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Thanks guys,I'll do a little experimenting and see if I can come up with something.I'll report as soon as I can. Sean Frantz (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  RE: Wot no RCX power connector?
 
(...) Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't that mean that TLG have effectively been lying if they claimed that the RCX unit itself is still the RCX 1.0? It seems like it may be worthwhile complaining (does anyone know an email address for (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: SW set list for 2000
 
(...) I've tried to read several SW books but never made it far because, honestly, I just haven't found any to be well-written. Just MO, of course. I've heard about how Boba Fett made it out of the Sarlaac Pit, and it seems reasonable that he should (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: S@H airplanes
 
Wow, I never knew they sold the 1775 set. I ordered a few, that is a *real* airplane, at least. Windows, hinges! Thanks for the info, Larry! Did they offer this before, or is this recently? Scott S. (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  RE: Wot no RCX power connector?
 
(...) My guess is it vanished after they got too many "defective" units back after folks started putting adapters with the wrong voltage on their bricks. Even a wired voltage spike might kill the brick. The battery route is safer from a product (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Feedback solicitation
 
(...) I don't think you have to spend an hour reading someones feedback. When evaluating a seller, I look for a reasonable positive rating (the larger the transaction, the higher I look for). I do go in and look at the comments. What I do is look at (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.market.theory)
 
  RE: RCX Firmware and SP
 
(...) Unfortunately, yes. The current version of pbFORTH allocates a 256 byte stack, but it's JUST above a 256 byte boundary. When you run the test code, everything works, but if your stack depth is around 12 and you run SENSOR_READ, it allocates (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
 
  Re: colors and parts

My stepson's prehistoric-themed Duplo set has an "ochre" (a good official name for the color) set of dinosaurs in it, and if I'm not mistaken, the Winnie the Pooh figure is ochre as well (although it's (...)

I just pulled out my receipt. It was $155.97. That's 20% off their normal price. I bought the last one at my store here in Champaign, Illinois. I don't know where the other stores are. If I remember correctly, they had the Droid system for about (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)
