Lot's of white.....I'm not sure I'd buy it just for parts, but if you had
a RCX or a Scout and wanted to play VLL with a MicroScout, it's a great
deal.

On the other hand, I've seen the RDS at Best Buy (and others) for $80.00.
For the extra 30 bucks, you'd get a Scout.  Lot's of blue.....Decisions,

RDS is priced at $68 in my local 'Frys' computer outlet. (On i20 just south

to multiple Scouts from a single RCX - and to collect sensor data back from
them are of interest to me right now since this deal makes it feasible to
use the Scouts as motor/sensor expansion units for an RCX which could be
the brains behind the operation.
