 | | Communication with PC using NQC
|
|
Hi all! Having a touch of flu, I might be asking a FAQ here... if so, sorry. How can the RCX communicate with the PC, except by SendMessage?

| | Another sickening Ebay auction - 1775 for $50 STARTING bid
|
|
(URL) starting bid?!? Can someone without an Ebay account email the bidder (mwdcitguru@compuserve.com) and let him know where he can get it, currently in stock, much cheaper? The auction ends in 12 hours. (25 years ago, 5-Nov-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

(URL) ONLY way he got ahold of one of these is by STEALING it from a store or warehouse, as the drawings don't end for quite some time. This sickens me. (25 years ago, 5-Nov-99, to lugnet.market.auction)
