Short answer: no.

Long answer:
The demos you are thinking of were for the LEGO Dacta Serial Interface Box
(Interface B) or earlier.  There is a ROBOLAB-like non-PowerPC interface called
LEGO Engineer for that old hardware.  I can't remember why ROBOLAB went
non-PowerPC... whether LabVIEW (which ROBOLAB is written in) stopped supporting
the platform or whether it just would have been too slow.

I just purchased ROBOLAB from Pitsco/Dacta. It appears to run on a

a non PowerPC version of ROBOLAB?
