Educational division as set 9709 (just contains the RCX).

I never noticed there was only one entry on Bricklink before - there • definitely
should be 2. The catalog is actually a bit confusing in this regard - it • says
part 884 is in all 4 sets, which is clearly incorrect. If you purchased • set
9709, then the seller listed it incorrectly, and you might wanna point • that out
to them. If it was listed as 884, then you can't really blame the seller • because
of the incorrect catalog.

I'll post a message on BL asking for the BL catalog to be fixed up.

(...) Ooops my bad... Yes they are marked 2.0. Has anyone checked whether they are any different to the 1.0 from the 1.5 set? ROSCO (21 years ago, 20-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics)
