(...) Chris! I had the same kit as a kid! I've been trying to remember the name of it for a little while now. Every once in a while I search on eBay hoping it might show up in an auction... No luck so far. I remember the tray was made of metal and (...) (22 years ago, 5-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) I agree - it's basically a good idea - but it's probably too expensive. (...) Using bluetooth for communications between RCX's - or between RCX and PC - is a bit of a non-starter, the range of bluetooth is intentionally rather short. An 802.11 (...)

(...) I can see the need for more I/O from the RCX, but I really don't understand why everyone thinks it needs more memory and CPU speed. I'm interested to hear about any projects that people have attempted which required more of either. Steve (22 years ago, 5-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics, FTX)

(...) Reading this thread, I am struck by one thought: who would actually pay for a souped-up RCX with intelligent sensors and BlueTooth in every sensor? I could see BlueTooth in every RCX, but it would be overkill for talking with sensors. A (...) (22 years ago, 5-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics)
