Based on my reading of the license agreement we agree to in using Legos
products, they claim ALL rights to anything derived from the use of the
software or products and anything developed can have NO COMMERCIAL
IMPLICATIONS.

For this reason I have not done anything serious with the product.  I am too
old and need money too much to spend my time developing around a product from
which I can derive no potential income.

If I am reading this agreement wrong, would someone please enlighten me.  It
seems to me that Legos restrictions are analagous to Bill Gates laying claim
to every letter and spreadsheet I create to say nothing ot the software I
write in Visual Basic and C++

(...) ...what license? There is no license on a box of Lego bricks? Perhaps the Lego *software* - but you don't have to use that. Use LegOS and GNU C++ if you are concerned about that. ---...--- Steve Baker ---...--- Mail : <sjbaker1@airmail.net> (...) (23 years ago, 27-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics)
