Sounds like a great idea. Almost like LegOS lite? I'm assuming that all the cool multi-tasking and LNP stuff isn't available. I got the WinRar 2.6 d/l'ed OK from ZDNet.com. However, I was sad to find that all the QC101 and the v102 patch .RAR were (...) (25 years ago, 20-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.robotics)
