No, these are for Lego-geeks only, who can recognize a Mac/PC parody
using NXT/RCX instead.  Very clever, kudos to the team that put them
together.

Alas, if you're looking for an academic comparison between the two, this
isn't the place to find it.  In fact, you should pretty much already
know both systems before watching the video to really appreciate it!

Check out these cool video clips about the RCX vs NXT from Iowa State
University's College of Engineering.  They are similar to the Mac vs.
PC ads.

Full of lies, distortions and half-truths? I'll skip it, thanks.

Well the nxt guy has got to be Brandon who was also in action at Atlanta.

Yep, that's me acting as NXT.  Jake Ingman, the guy w/the monkey hat in Atlanta,
is RCX.  These were just meant to be a humorous look at the differences between
the NXT and the RCX, not anything purely educational.  Glad to see people
enjoying them - we had a ton of fun putting them together!

(...) Very cool. I must say, I was expecting RCX to come back with no memory, once his batteries were changed... :) But, still funny. And, I don't think I would have identified Jake without the hat. :) Steve (18 years ago, 3-May-07, to lugnet.robotics)
