You too huh?

I got a couple Lego Mindstorms sets a  few months ago.  I'm a good
programmer, but not very skilled at Technics.  Right now, I'm not using my
sets. Why?  Because Mindstorms got me (back) into electronics!  I had this
electronic kit when I was 12, and I loved playing with it.

Now, I'm going to go back and do what I always wanted to -- learn all about
electronics!

When I master them somewhat, I'll build cool sensors for Mindstorms! ^_^

Tobias,
   I am 15 years old and I love mindstorms. I never really got a
chance to experiment with the included software but i found that NQC was
very easy to learn. I would recomend using the RCX Command Center  made
by Mark Overmars because that has templets that really simplify the job.
For the matter of electronics, I find that it is very interesting but
that I really do not know that much. This has given me a new hobby
(along with lego mindstorms)  to explore and learn about. BE WARNED: You
will get addicted(as said in a previous answer to your question; sorry i
forget your name) and end up spending lots of money on lego technic
sets.
