Dave,
Calum is correct, if you used the LEGO train adapter to send "stuff:" to the battery
terminals, then YES, you did PUNCH your RCX.
now, before Calum pipes up and suggests you put MILK in your RCX, please do bring it
to the dinner, I'm sure one or two of us will have a go at it. Actually, my first
recommendations would be to pass it on to Matais J.
he's probably the RCX electronics expert.
failing that, I'll warm up the ol' iron.
