My PC-RCX hybrid Rubik's Cube solving robot made it into the New York Times

(...) Congrats! It's definitely worth it! Nice webpage too, any chance to see some animations of the Cube solver on the page? Would be great to see it in 'action'. //Harri Manni (23 years ago, 12-Oct-01, to lugnet.robotics)
