I was wondering if there will be any problem using the RCX and
the computer software from Lego when we roll over to the
year 2000.

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.

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.
