Who knows....there are days I think we're (as in the older lego crowd, 20+) just thinking 'that's the way it was and we liked it' (Dana Carvey's Grumpy Old Man) when we (...)

I went to a local CompUSA looking for a add-on for Sid Meir's Alpha Centauri and was wandering around. Lo and Behold, I find a children's section of software with all the Mindstorm Kits! Including the new RIS 1.5. I just got my RIS 1.0 for my (...) (25 years ago, 26-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Ray, You could be on to something. That would explain why the European service pack catalog has like 3 times the number of service packs in it then our does.
