(...) I dunno about how IP rights to the concept of hosting LEGO instruction scans online would work. If someone else wanted to host scans online, I don't think there would be anything Kevin could say about it. (...) This is a major point I think (...) (23 years ago, 27-Feb-02, to lugnet.dear-lego)

However this brings up an interesting dilemma....Brickshelf (now Brickshelf LLC) was founded to originally display the scans of instructions and catalogues....the hosting of MOC's and other stuff was secondary. The compilation of the scans was the (...) (23 years ago, 27-Feb-02, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Or perhaps LEGO could host the scans on one of their servers, so that BrickShelf LLC wouldn't use as much bandwidth as before!? Just a thought... JohnG, GMLTC (23 years ago, 26-Feb-02, to lugnet.dear-lego)

Dear Lego-- Please authorize Brickshelf LLC to continue to display the old instruction scans that had been available on that site. The scans are a vital resource for the Lego community and are badly missed. Having scans of old sets available only (...) (23 years ago, 26-Feb-02, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Another example of the use of the new smooth technic beams is the Caterham Super 7 replica by Neil Everett. If you look at the pictures or DAT files of the chassis, or the front suspension/steering assembly, you'll see what I mean. I've built (...)

Just back after a short trip down to VA. Of course I stopped at the Lego Store at Potomac Mills. Now this place is a Lego Company Store - right off a major interstate in a location that generates tons of foot traffic. You might expect it to be a (...) (23 years ago, 25-Feb-02, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Not wanting to be too argumentative, but most of the ways listed use parts that conform to the "traditional" technic model - something that mounts to studs on a brick or plate and then uses a connector or pin to interface to the "newer" parts.

Some great points have been made here. I actually really like most of the new parts (particularly the various axle connectors), but it does seem that the functionality of the average Technic model is less advanced than that of five years ago. The (...) (23 years ago, 21-Feb-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) I would agree, looking at the new technic, where are the big machinery type sets of old, like the "claw rig" and "crane"?
