Well I also ran the same test, with both the RCX and the NXT... and the results
were so identical, it's almost shocking.
RCX - did not place order at shop&home, and strangely it never arrived.
NXT - did not place order at shop&home, and coincidentally enough, it too did
not arrive.
How weird is THAT???

P.S. The real reason I am responding to you Steve, is two fold, one, 'cause I
miss you, and two, 'cause I want to ask you if you have yet finished the cad of
the "simple, little blue ball pump"? If so, please link me up, if you are
willing to share.

| (...) Janey, you need to constrain the test better - the question here is "how *long* did it take the RCX not to arrive?". You have to be specific and scientific on these things... (18 years ago, 28-Jun-06, to lugnet.robotics)
