  Brick.tube evolution?
 
I've noticed this several times during my Lego career, but while browsing my stash of 2x4 bricks I noticed it again and thought I'd ask. The tubes on some of my older bricks have slots in them. I seem to recall realizing this years ago, thinking at (...) (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Slim Pickings at Target
 
(...) The Target across the street from my apartment was the same way. The amazing this was that it was NOT clearence prices that emptied their shelves. Most of the good stuff was gone BEFORE they even got to the clearance prices. TImbo (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.us.mi.det)
 
  Re: 8 Wide Train Pics
 
(...) Trouble? It's free, right? What's the trouble - downloading and installing it? In my experience Virtual PC runs about as fast as a PC of half the clock speed of the Mac running it, so you'll be running it about as well as a 150-166 Pentium. (...)

  Re: Slim Pickings at Target
 
(...) *sigh* All you non-thrifty people buying things at 40% off just totally destroys any chance of me finding them at 70% off in a few weeks. I'm sure I'll get back to Knoxville to discovere every store cleaned out at what some people insist on (...) (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.us.mi.det)

  Re: Bulk Pieces suggestions
 
I'll chime in on a slightly different vein. Rather than us telling them what we want (which is good) and hoping they can come up with it (which may turn out disappointing), how about if they tell us what they can easily offer, what they can offer (...)

(...) I would agree. Also a ranch and a church. I think they should also do a southern theme with a tex-mex feel to it. You got to have those mexican banditos. Then a northern feel with a cabin and mountain men. Greatest wants 1. Shot gun (they (...) (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.western)

(...) In New York, TRU employs RJIS to do total shelf inventory. After Christmas, RJIS staffs up and dispenses laser scanner belts to college students on break. You sometimes find their data sheets lying about. My experience with TRU is that 3 year (...) (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.theory)
 
  Baseplates not limited
 
Answering my own question here, I got the catalouge today, and 626 through 628, the blue, green, and X-Large baseplates are not limited quantities. (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)

  Re: Pascal as language for programming a RCX-module
 
(...) Of course one can use pascal. The fact that there's no development tools supporting that language yet doesn't mean it's impossible... just that it hasn't been done (probably due to lack of demand). If you're in a real hurry, you might be able (...) (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Pascal as language for programming a RCX-module
 
Yes, you can. I even use a 8086 PC with DOS QBasic to program a CiberMaster. You'll have to do the basic I/O routines and the sending of the RCX opCodes. You can look at the work done by Bert van Dam at (URL) the "DOS" section. (...) ___...___ Marco (...) (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Pascal as language for programming a RCX-module
 
Nein. You cannot use Pascal. There is NQC, pbForth or Visual Basic as possibilities to program. As you are visting a FHS this shouldn't matter at all, if you get that RCX..... Viel Spass auch hier: Stefan mailto:e9225865@stud...wien.ac.at (...) (...) (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)

  Mellandagsrea?
 
Hej! Vet ni om det finns någon leksaksaffär som har mellandagsrea? Min flickvän är ute och frossar i MR i kläder, men på lego verkar det bara vara någon rabatt på en tia eller så här och där. Eller har jag missat något? (Säg att jag har det!) Mvh, (...) (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.se)
