(...) I don't know, this set is still very much LEGO. Sure, it is a little juniorized, but the biggest parts pretty much need to be that way to be useable, without the set being a $200 set. How many bricks would it take to make that roadway work if (...) (25 years ago, 30-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)

(...) I got them from myfamily.com - they offered $50 off $75 purchase. I ordered 2 Dacta roof pack and 1 windows and doors pack. The shipping was quite a bit, but overall the deal was worth it. -- pn (25 years ago, 30-Dec-99, to lugnet.castle)

Actually, this may be easier than you think. If you look at the MindStorms site somewhere, an ATM machine was built by an MIT student (the same guy who built the photocopier pictured on the RIS box) that scanned a 1x2 flat plate that had several (...) (25 years ago, 30-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) The arm itself should be just about level in the "down" position. If its level but the grabbers don't reach the table, then there's probably something wrong in the grabber assembly (or how the arm is attached to the base). If it isn't level, (...)

(...) Currently there isn't any notion of an "error code" from the serial port class - opening the serial port just returns true/fals.
