  Re: Lego Design Contest?
 
(...) What are some construction ideas that people have that we could use for the contest. I have a couple of good ones, but I don't want to make them public until the competition starts. Anyone? Bueler? Bueler? Bueler? Scooter DML6@po.cwru.edu (26 years ago, 10-Dec-98, to lugnet.general)

Might as well JUST get the 2 pieces I need, rather than buying a set ;-) I'll buy it if I have to, but I don't need most of the pieces in that set, especially at $50.

  Wall Street Journal on Lego Mindstorms
 
The Wall Street Journal has a nice (albeit technologically simplified) article today on Lego Mindstorms' popularity among adults. It's not, to my knowledge available on-line, and for copyright reasons I won't post it all here. But here's a couple (...)
