Hello

I wish to buy my grandson a programmable robot system (its true that I
want to play with it as well.. I do have a good programming background
and an NT box 4 sp3).
The Lego Mindstorms are available for purchase in my area, but I have
never seen a Cybermaster for sale.

1) What is the basic difference between Lego Mindstorm Invention System
and a Lego Cybermaster ?

See this for a comparison at a glance:

2) Which is the better choice (for someone who has never
played/prograammed robots)  ??



Cybermaster is more targeted to kids who are not interested in programming,
but with third arty software it's very possible. Mindstorms is more targeted
to programming, but also for beginners so you'll need third party software
for more complicated programs.
