Threading is something I haven't dealt with much in Java.  Its very interesting,

motor pulsing it would be simple.  I'd just have to run it very slowly.

Hmmm.... I'm having the same problems in LegOS. You see, my robot is
currently working, but if I want to speed it up, then I have to control the
motors better with multitasking and motor pulsing. I have a mechanical
solutionn to the accuracy problem, but I would rather do it properly with
software. Threading is a pretty tough subject. I went to the engineering
library here at school, and out of about 15 books on C programming, only one
even mentioned threads and multitasking.

From what I've seen threading in C is nasty.  At least Java was written with
multi-threading in mind.  Its still not pretty but I think I'm getting the hang of
it.

Remember everyone, bring a print out of your source code next Saturday.  I'd really
like to see peoples software solutions as well as their robots.
