Hi Folks, After trying to get RIS 1.5 (that works on Win 95) and failing, I now want to get an RIS 2.0 system but would like to know if 2.0 works with Win 2000 ? Thanks, Harpreet ======== (23 years ago, 17-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) I remember seeing an ad in some Oceanography magazine for a LEGO submarine that used the RCX in a sealed housing. From the diagram (line drawing) it looked like it used different motors. I also remember someone using a submerged 9 volt geared (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Robolab is a wonderful tool for working with the RCX. I agree that the interface is unusual, but it accurately reflects the way that National Instruments (creator of LabView, the father of Robolab) views the world. They see everything as a (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi Wayne, The northern California hotbed of LEGO activity is the Bay Area-- BayLug actually meets fairly regularly (I think down in Fremont). Otherwise it is pretty dead up here, although a while back someone from the Reno area was looking for (...)

Wow. Michael, this helps a lot. Thanks. But now I have some other questions... (...) Yes, that makes sense.

While searching around recently for information on ROBOLAB I found this URL that lists available products for purchase.

Thanks to all those who replied. I think the consensus is to move forward with the NQC. I am relieved that there is a GUI for it and will look into this. Steve - as for your point about there being easier ways to learn how to program, this is no (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics)

Ok, lets try to fiddle some things out. There seems to be a confusion about the software needed for running legOS and why. And there seems to be some confusion about what cygwin and DJGPP are. legOS runs user programs written in C and compiled to (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Thanks. I'm new to this game. I'm aware of bricklink but my initial take is that one needs to search their list on the home page for a dealer and then order through them. Maybe this isn't true. Maybe one just orders on bricklink and a dealer (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics)
