Hi,
I have been thinking this. It seems like an official Lego release of
the legOS system would be quite beneficial to TLG, especially since I read
in the wired.com article that around 50% of the MS sales goes to adult
men.
In response to another comment, I will ask this question: What is
the likelihood of an RCX clone?
