Yes, the response time of the CLI is rather disappointing to say the least.
Personally I think the CLI is best suited for controlling things like lights,
and motors on someones town layout. For anything that requires precise control
use an RCX or a NXT.
You can try using the ActiveX Control found here on this webpage
http://dan.berladyn.net/LEGO/LEGOocx.html (it hasn't worked for me under Vista,
but XP should be ok). Or you can hunt down the original CLI software but that
only works with Windows98. The best thing to use is Robolab or to code
something yourself in a C language.
