I just bought the new flash speeder and wondered why they put an unnamed figure in rather than an actual character. I thought that this would be a perfect opportunity to include Captain Panaka, since he was driving the speeder in the movie. With (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: What are your 10 most wanted pieces from LEGO Direct?
 
Tony, If you looked at my list, you would note that bricks in obscure colors like brown came in at the top of the list. For people outside the US, well, I mentioned that bulk sales should be offered at the Legolands. That should service all of (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jan-00, to lugnet.general)

  PRGM button - am I missing something?
 
I may be missing something horribly simple, but I can't seem to get the PRGM button on the RCX to change the program being executed by legOS. For instance, if I dll foo.lx -p0 dll bar.lx -p1 I can only get bar.lx (or whatever I 'dll' last) to (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: Name?

  useful battery program
