Let me see if I've got this right. The RCX has an operating system in a ROM.
This controls the basic I/O, timer, hardware details and communications. It
also upon first start, loads another program from the PC - this is the
Firmware we're talking about. It is loaded into the 32K RAM and it runs the
programs that the user writes.
Now - it is possible to write an alternate OS - in H8 code(?) - that will do
the same thing. This is what legOS is. (?)
