Hi everyone! Well, as we all know, Lego has really expanded its name with everyday names such as the NBA, MLS, Nike, Shell, etc. etc. But has Lego ever been involved in a poor marketing decision? I think I may have found one marketing decision that (...) (23 years ago, 10-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

The XP patch is now mention on the Lego Studios support page. But, you have to call them and ask for a CD. Why not make a patch for download, like everyone else ... ? Anywy, did anyone try the XP version? I still stick to Win98, partly due to the (...) (23 years ago, 10-Jan-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.animation)

Be sure to check out this article as well. (URL) it is not an "all-purpose" sorting solution, the containers presented are pretty cool. Steven (23 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

(...) If you were to come to my home (in New York state) you would find we have dozens of empty ice cream containers with lids. The sizes are 4 quart and 6 quart, are round, and will nest inside each other. But you will NOT find Lego stored in any (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

(...) My instant guess after seeing the picture was 100k, but the 125-150k that others are estimating sounds a little better. (...) Based on what you've said about your collection, I'm sure you're at 500k, probably more. My verified count (based on (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

(...) Thanks for that idea! Never thought of skipping the lids to avoid storing air. /Tore Where I live, we have to pay SEK 10 (~US$1.10) for three candy boxes :( but they're worth it! :) (23 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

(...) Note - the blue Creator tubs can be compacted up to 5:1 if bricks are stacked, 4:1 with little to no stacking. But that's because 300 of the 1K bricks are 1x1s. (23 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

Dave, If your collection is 500K, then I'd better not even THINK about how large mine is ;-) Take your Iris cart collection, and multiply it by 3. That's all my new bricks. If I can get all the rest of the bricks into Iris carts, add at least what (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

(...) I'd second that guess. I have about 193K _that is identifiable_ as being in my collection, and it probably takes 2x your volume at least for storage. I'd guess I have more like 250K pieces, but that is a guess, whereas the 193K is a minimum (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)
