 | | Hardware Hacking of RCX
|
|
Considering that LegOS talks directly to the hardware, this seems like a good place to ask the following questions. I am yet again frustrated at having only three inputs and three outputs on my RCX, and am wondering at the possibility of hacking the (...) (23 years ago, 18-Jul-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
