The problem brought up in the thread earlier about the motors in the
MindStroms package are just DC motors, not servo motors, does make
executing LOGO commands awkward since quantitative responses are
expected.  The suggested work arounds involving measuring how far a motor
has rotated and using that to control the final angle is workable but
would take up many of the very few sensory inputs for the RCX.  Do you
know if the MIT brickLOGO is used to drive servomotors?  Any chance of
LEGO making servo motor bricks? (would need some interface from the RCX).

Sound's like a job for the Cybemaster which has Tacho's associated
with its two driving motors.
