I asked the wrong question earlier. I *do* want to use a windows machine. I *do not* want to use the Legos RCX windows software. So, is there any windows shareware that will allow me to download the firmware file? Thanks, billq Bill_Quinn@DataBeam.com on 11/16/98 02:03:14 AM To: lego-robotics@crynwr.com cc: (bcc: Bill Quinn/LEX/Lotus) Subject: How to download firmware file (non-Windows approach?) Is there any way to download the firmware without using the Windows RCX software? If so, please provide instructions. Why? I would like to get away from using a windows machine ASAP. It looks like there are plenty of development tools etc. But I can't think of a way around using the RCX software to first download the RCX's firmware file. Any ideas? Thanks, billq
