   OK, while we're all waiting for word on the MDP (one way or another), I was
cruising the web, hoping for news... and found this:

It seems there's a number of NXT blogs springing up and linking up, and they've
ferreted out some interesting information. LEGO has a number of good sites up,
but they don't seem easy to find (or at least, I only found them through this
guys blog):

The Technic design school is interesting to me - I really hope they expand it. I
never ran across the fact that studless designs were easier to align with some
pegs on both beams (pg 5 of the "Technic 101" course), and I find it interesting
that they're even pushing for a different terminology for measurement: the
"module", not the stud!

(...) hmm. I do think the design school is very cool. However, I DO NOT agree with the design tip saying beams are easier to align with pins in both sides. I always try to put them on the same beam. But, what do I know? Steve (19 years ago, 1-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics)
