(...) What I meant was that Lego should improve the Mindstorms product line and create an official forum targeted as the same demographic they're selling Mindstorms too and not afols. Lugnet will always be much better than that, but it's probably a (...) (19 years ago, 29-Nov-05, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.mediawatch)

(...) How long has the current version of the RCX been around? (...) What would you want to see in an online forum? What would it include that's not available here (LUGNET) and/or on LEGOfan? Steve (19 years ago, 29-Nov-05, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.mediawatch)

(...) I like the tie-ins, except "Harry Pooper". Star Wars has made Lego "cool" in some quarters. They're a great reason for people who already have sufficent Lego to buy more. They just need better tie-ins. "The Matrix" Lego would have been cool. (...) (19 years ago, 28-Nov-05, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.mediawatch)

The problem is guys, while that may not mean many lugnet regulars and afols, the majority of their sales are gonna be kids who only put together the described models.

(...) It's a very funny story. I really tried to read the whole thing, but I can't. I've spent too much time laughing. I recognize the author's logic trail from the cartoon network.
