(...) Yes. Successfully. There is already software available for converting .wav files. (thanks MDPs) Of course, they can't be too big. One of the first things I did was replace the goofy startup sound with a smaller one. There's also software to (...) (19 years ago, 5-May-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I would add, for completeness sake, that there is also an ATMEGA48 in the NXT too. There are two main reasons for this. 1. The legacy sensor interface requires 5v ADC for the analog inputs. 2. The motor PWM needs some outboard help. The ATMEGA (...) (19 years ago, 5-May-06, to lugnet.robotics)
