| (...) I'm not sure about that, but they certainly have disclaimers on the firmware itself, which prevents us from reverse engineering it. Now, the original intent was probably to prevent a competitor from designing a system which was compatible with (...) (24 years ago, 10-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)

| I have noticed a number of comments about the RCX byte code system, including this thread, which would like to see some sort of datalog read function. My question is; Does Lego have a copyright on the byte code interpretation? If not, then wouldn't (...) (24 years ago, 10-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)

| (...) If we could duplicate the firmware's functions for "the standard" and create a "super set" on top of it for other functions we could really make the RCX a powerful beast. Picture this... Firmware with options when installing it. Do you want (...) (24 years ago, 10-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)

The jump from LegOS to NQC is relatively painless once you get a working LegOS compiler up and running. I was actually able to (...) (24 years ago, 20-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)
