I thought this _might_ be of interest to either those in l.r.r.legos or l.r.r.nqc, but I couldn't decide which, so I'll just post it here [in l.r.r]. It's what I came up with given two weeks with a Mindstorms kit and reading the groups here at (...) (25 years ago, 10-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Many of the changes were to make NQC similar to RCX Code (at least for the commands that RCX Code supports), and I believe RCX Code has a loose connection to the Lego Logo work. Dave (25 years ago, 10-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) They're both 8-bit microcontrollers with a roughly similar set of peripheral functions (timer, ACD, serial port, etc). But the similarity ends there. The programming model for the H8 is compltely different from the 68xx series. (...) I don't (...) (25 years ago, 9-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
