I don't have my brick with me here at work, but I'm looking forward to giving the utility a whirl once I'm back home this evening. (...) (19 years ago, 10-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Michael Anderson had a great idea for an NXT tool for BricxCC. He envisioned a PC screen which would show whatever was on the NXT screen, only scaled to a larger size. He mentioned his idea to me and a couple hours later it was finished (or, at (...) (19 years ago, 10-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt) !

Is there such a thing as a firmware greater than 0328 (firm0328.lgo) as supplied with RIS2?
