(...) I guess we have enough new users here that I can start flogging pbForth again.....and I just released a new version that lets you build a kernel on the RCX itself!! That's right, the RCX is the compiler so it works with Macs, PCs, Linux, Sun, (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Sure why not. The transputer parallel CPU was specifically designed to run OCCAM and it only had 4K of internal RAM compared to the 32K. However, it has direct machine-level support for the OCCAM constructs. I was actually planning on using (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)

|

This doesn't have much to do with any Easter eggs, but you can get the demo for Racers from www.gamespot.com. I downloaded it, and have really enjoyed it. It only has one track and a limited selection of drivers, but it is still fun. If the full (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.games)

(...) From some searching it appears that OCCAM-2 is a programming language for parallel systems, so having a lot of threads probably is desirable. It also seems to me that implementing an existing language on the RCX would generally involve new (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi! I dunno if anyone's already done this part or not, but it wasn't in the latest, greatest version of LDraw when I downloaded LDraw, so I thought I'd try my hand at it. This part is the large flag from the old Pirates theme. The three versions (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

The Toys R Us near 35 and Cameron has quite a few B-Wings, some Artic sets, and some new Town sets, but none of the other new sets. I picked up a B-Wing and their last 600 piece silver bucket ($8). I also checked the 183/35 Wal-Mart, no new sets. (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)

Does anyone know the MSRP of this set? It's a Freestyle set with 801 pieces (counting the case?) and a storage box. I've gotten the very rare (in Edmonton, anyway) FOTW - I picked 4 of these up for ~$15.00 CAD each. Now, if I knew the MSRP, I'd know (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)
