| | | (...) Along those lines, does anybody know if the 8880 Super Car has any Y2K problems? That is one of my favorite sets, and I don't want it to break a year from now. -Kekoa (26 years ago, 1-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | | (...) Sorry, #8880 isn't Y2K compliant. The original (non-notched) #2 axles will spontaneously combust on 2/29/00. You should upgrade all older Technic sets to use the newer notched #2 axles which are Y2K compliant. Dave (26 years ago, 1-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | | | Now you tell me! I was putting together my *brand new* 8880 last night. It was a very expensive present to myself that arrived via Priority Mail that morning. I was doing a roll over test and had all of my LEGO set to 1999 to verify that the 2000 (...) (26 years ago, 1-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | Y2K ?! heck, I'd be happy to use lego mindstorms NOW in 1999. It seems I MUST have my IR tower as COM1 or COM2 (the built-in motherboard ports), either that or the software does not like my Equinox super serial card. With the IR tower on COM3 the (...)

| | | | Um. Cyberia.. I discovered to my dismay, that the Lego IR tower and software on windows is touchier about IRQ than Linux is about PnP devices. My tower will only work on Com2 because my Mouse is on COM1 (IRQ4) and my modem is COM3(IRQ4), if I (...) (26 years ago, 5-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)
