(...) The Scout has the following drawbacks. Passive Sensors only. No Rotation or Light. It's very hard to use the Light sensor for some projects since it's built into the brick. 1k of RAM!!!

I also think Scout is very good, and it has some new features that not in RCX but will be in new RCX2, like event monitor and so on. NQC 2.2 r1 supports scout in NQC language, so you can write software like for RCX, if you like to use IDE (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)

I've got a linux box sitting here that is not doing much at all. I was thinking that I could devote it to Legos. I know that I have seen something on here b4 about using Linux. Where could I get the appropriate driver? Thanks, Jim (25 years ago, 19-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)

I have to agree, the Scout is great. While it will never be as powerful as it's bigger sibling (not sure on the gender here....), it still has plenty of fun inside. And it's being discounted at places like BestBuy for $79.00 which makes it a good (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)

I think the scout is great. We build quite a lot of simple models to be controlled by the IRRC, it is perfect for this. It is also good for checking out larger models before the RCX is cranked up. It is biggest draw back is the it only having two (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)
