This is hard to swallow, but true.

How can a product line that PCS Edventures successfully launched based on the
quality of LEGO materials and technology of the RCX be converted to Mega Bloks
material?
LEGO may have dropped out of the relationship, and they sought a replacement,
but I can't get over the incompatability involved in using clone bricks.
Software, documentation, retooling of the customized storage centers, etc.
Doesn't make sense to me. Anybody else have any thoughts on this?
