Besides trying to hack the USB port to make it a host (which seems more unlikely the more I read), and besides trying to use Bluetooth to talk to my Gameboy Advance (and vice-versa), I'd also like to tackle something like the RCX.NET project.

I've also done it on a Motorola 68HC11 (a microcontroller), and I've written both pure machine code and assembly (...) (19 years ago, 10-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics, FTX)

| | Re: LNPd with USB Tower - success?
|
| (...) I've never used LNPd, but since it's old enough to have "legOS" as its first letter, then it must support the serial IR tower. If no one else has info for you, you might consider buying one. Pitsco sells it new for $31.00: (URL) can get them (...) (19 years ago, 10-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I just started working with José David Parra on a redesign of his original namespace, so now maybe he'll have to rename it, too. :) What's LEGO's position on code namespaces, (...)
