 | | New Soccer Bus at TRU!
|
|
I found an interesting little bit in the TRU here in Belleville-a red soccer bus that has an Adidas logo on it. It's $29 and comes with a ball, just like the great Ball Bus from a year or two ago. Looks like a neat little set, but horribly (...) (23 years ago, 19-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Getting the JDK in is no problem, just remind me of it a little closer (ie, Thursday night send me an email) Calum Pretend dialup from Belleville isn't the most cruel thing ever invented. (23 years ago, 19-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Thanks for the offer, the one big thing I'd need installed is the Sun 1.3.1 JDK. LeJOS and my source will easily fit on floppies. I'd also need WinZip or equivelent to extract the LeJOS archive, and a text editor of some description. Notepad (...) (23 years ago, 19-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) You could if you really want, but I'll have at least one if not two extra laptops at rtl10 for people to use. Just bring your code on floppy and of course, your IR tower. I can preload whatever you need the night before. Calum (23 years ago, 19-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

In all likelihood I won't be able to bring a computer to rtl10, and the software I need will likely be difficult to setup on someone else's computer. Assuming someone will even let me do that. I will burn a CD with everything I need but just in case (...) (23 years ago, 19-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

What did you do? Did you do it during normal use? If you did, then i think they'll replace it. Even if you didn't, you should still try. Also, check out the thread "RCX Dead??" on lugnet.robotics. Some of the stuff in there might be applicable to (...) (23 years ago, 18-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
