Well, I just got off the phone with tech support. The LEGO Studios SW/Camera
does not work under Windows 2000. Only on Win98 (second edition) and the new
Windows Millennium.

Does anyone know if it will work with Windows 95?  I have heard
contradictory reports about USB support being un/available in Win95.
Can anyone confirm?

The S@H catalog is lying when it says it will run on
Win2000 machines. (Now I know how you Mac users feel.)  The software will only
work with the LEGO camera that comes in the box. It will not even work with
the Vision Command Camera even though it is physically the same camera. The
Studios camera has a very unique/specialized set of drivers that must be used
to make this work.  They are not even going to try to make it work with
Win2000 at a later date. So all W2k users are out of luck.
