What an interesting question, and I hope it solicits a comprehensive
review from someone who has the breadth to understand and use them
all.
I use nqc all the time because it is SO easy. - thanks Dave!
But, I would like the freedom offered by a development system
which compiles directly to a native binary.
It would seem that you have to be familiar with unix and its derivatives
in order to be able to accomplish this. My attempts to use LegOS
have been total failures. I have made the suggestion to one or two
people that a CD-R with everything preconfigured to copy to your
hard drive and run would make it much easier to get running. None
of my offered bribes have worked though :(
So, I wait with great interest to see what's out there.

Just out of pure curiosity:
How many different programming languages for the RCX exists?
Which is the easiest/most advanced/best? (I know this is a matter of taste)
And is there any language that does *not* use the LEGO firmware?

| OK John, I just got a CD Burner. Give me your address and I'll try to send you a running LegOS development system and get you running (you are in the USA right?).
