Clearly, the CAD part should ALWAYS be the one with the power adapter port
because it will allow builders to see graphically whether there is
enough clearance to plug an AC adaptor into their creations. (It would
be cool to model a variety of typical power jack plugs so people could
check clearance for power jacks of kinds that they don't own.)
That's important to builders - and it's ESPECIALLY important to people
with 2.0 systems because they can't tell directly by looking at their
real RCX.
I think it would be *wrong* to model a 1.5 or 2.0 RCX since they are
otherwise identical.
