I x-posted this to the lugnet.robotics, as I felt this applied to the
robotics community in general...

There is also a patch CD for LEGO Studios.

I had to go through Tech Support (hint:  select Windows 98 as your operating
system... choosing XP then Vision Command leads to a dead-end).  Tech
Support establishes proof of purchase.

Afterwards, I needed to call back (1.800.422.5346) but not select any
options so that I could speak with customer service and request the CD's, at
which time they looked me up and confirmed that I went through tech support.

The person I spoke to told me that the Vision Command CD for XP is only
available in English at this time.
