Hi,

I read somewhere that the RCX is limited to only 10 concurrent tasks.
Is this limitation in the firmware?  If so, can I use a replacement
firmware like legOS to overcome this.  I basically want to have an
unlimited number of tasks so that I can port OCCAM-2 to the RCX.  Thanks

Ram

(...) <chuckle> 10 seems like a small number (yes its limited by the firmware) until you try to use them all. In my experience only email and webserver type applications kick off more than 4 or 5 threads at once. DLC (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
