The resources on the net for getting into the Lego software, including
the very successfull alternatives, are quite stunning. Within a few
weeks I have come quite far, and the fun goes on.

Now I have a question about the hardware:

Has anyone heard of (or is themselves responsible) for a successful
hardware hack of the Lego RCX brick?

incompatible with the Lego environment.

Any hints would be much appreciated.
