I have a Lego Mindstorms set and am interested in a more powerful GRAPHICAL
programming environment (I am familiar with language CODING options such as
NQC and VB). Can I order JUST the RoboLab software (Lego part no. 2000050 I
believe)? Is there any reason why the RoboLab software cannot be used to
program the RCX with the Mindstorms set (set of parts)? Or is there a better
option?

| Yes you can order the Robolab from Dacta. It sells for $25.00 for the software and if you want the book that goes with it and takes you thur the software it is $50.00. I am using for mindstorms for my son's home schooling and it is great much better (...) (26 years ago, 22-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics)
